#aussieED Archive
#aussieED was founded on the belief that all teachers, and students, should have unlimited access to Professional Development, on their own terms, to improve their teaching, their schools and change the lives of the students they encounter. Since then, we have embarked on a mission to reach educators, not only in Australia but, all around the globe. We want to smash the barriers that prevent teachers from easily connecting and learning with each other. To that end, we have developed a regular Ed-chat each Sunday on twitter at #aussieED. The chat allows all teachers, leaders, administrators and all those connected with education to meet on an unbiased platform and discuss the real issues that effect what happens in classrooms everywhere. Our chats are authentic because we are real teachers walking the same walk that so many do everyday.

A7 I'd love to see our profession explore design thinking & coding at a higher level (pedagogical, skills & content) than previous
Love! Teaching it to my Ss tomorrow!
GOODNIGHT 2 ALL EDUTWEETERS!! Hav a great week!
Zeina I agree.Over planning and an unhealthy over reliance on textbooks and worksheets is destroying creativity

any resource to start design thinking at classroom level?
When you still have the excitement-butterflies the night before teaching, it's the best feeling
Good thing you did is playing up again!

Yep, Ts making mistakes through taking chances should be role modelling https://t.co/PC10ZGhJS7
A3 Sitting back and not taking chances. It is easy for us to encourage Ss to take a chance but not always ourselves.
Nice power of tech, audio is good too https://t.co/BHiJreC2RU
A2 Giving video feedback to sts instead of written has been a huge change for my classes. Much better than just red ink on a page.
I try to listen & understand; then we can figure out how to move forward.
We post them to as unlisted to YouTube, then embed them to our onto Padlet or a Google Doc. https://t.co/Zosoh7E04o
Seems like a google drive shared folder would be great to share resources…???
it reminds me of DFC: Design For Change. Is it related?
Thanks for the chat ! Eye opening and soul fulfilling as usual! Off to finalise plans for tomorrow. Glad to see that hasn't changed
