“So, let's start thinking about intellectual humility and other psychological strengths such as curiosity and creativity in a new way. It's about us. It’s about social environments. It's about creating an incentive structure..” @toddkashdan via @kphoekman

Captivated by @sandraapeter's deeply thought-provoking presentation "A decade of disorientation: what leaders need to know next" this morning at #ACEL #NC24. 'Shift happens' and 'the only way is up..skilling'. Insights from The 2025 Skills Horizon report:

"Phubbing" = phone + snubbing.. "any interruption of your conversation with someone when he or she attends to their cell phone or when you are in close proximity to another but they use their phone instead of communicating with you” Roberts, David (2016)

How can we develop a better language for engagement and how might we share the responsibility? Engagement: “The degree of effort, interest, curiosity, persistence, and risk-taking that learners choose to invest in learning.” @DRAmyBerry #SBMU24

Looking forward to Thursday's conversation and sharing some reflections on the collaborative inquiry, storytelling techniques and compelling case for change required to successfully lead innovation with confidence and humility. Register:

Themes discussed included perspectives on what defines innovation in edu, the realities vs expectations of career in teaching, the skills and attributes required within the profession and Qs from participants such as the impact of AI on teachers, data and how we measure KPIs.

AI may hold a key to the preservation of the Amazon rainforest: “One of the things we want to do here is a transformation of society,” Ochoa said. “We are a mega-diverse country, but our economy is based on the use of raw materials.” #MIEexpert

A personal highlight of #eSmartWeek was the co-design of an AI presentation (sample slides below) leveraging survey data designed and analysed by students last year as well as the contextual adaption of resources to foster understanding and discussion of key concepts #edtech

Today I completed the 'AI skills challenge for educators' trophy via @MicrosoftLearn. A useful collection of modules to further support our measured and safe exploration of AI with Copilot's personal and company data protection #MSLearnTrophy #MIEexpert

@ianfairhurst @toddle_edu Great to see you again briefly, Ian. Appreciated your measured approach to AI adoption and practical insights.
