Badge Glue!!?? I used wonder web but then the top became dirty (as it does with little children) and the badges peeled!! 🤣

Had a problem with mobile CSS - now fixed ☺️

Created a simulator using AI for A Level CS students demonstrating logic circuits and half / full adders :D

I’ve given it to all of my students from KS1 to KS5. Wasn’t particularly monitoring the questions. Some of the year 8s had a really problem with the last question.

My thoughts to the engineers who incorrectly configured DNS tables. 🤦‍♀️

You know when those forgotten tools crop up, it’s Sunday and I’m sadly enjoying creating resources using logic.ly - teaching GCSE logic gate this week and A Level D-type flip flops after half term 🤗

Have a great week #TeamCompSci!!

I’m going to use this!! 👌👋

Yeah there are cases of never use AI - the point isn’t the code in this case, though some demo of code and case use is a great side effect. Just something to illustrate another tricky topic. I was impressed at speed of creating this simple algorithm!

Demonstrated use of stacks for recursive fibonacci - asked Copilot to create me a demo and so I thought I'd share for reuse! trinket.io/python3/e511... #TeamCompSci

Have provided this in case anyone may be interested in using too. You should be able to remix if you do!

Hi 👋 - using copilot to create quickly coded solutions to break up the theory laden content of a level lessons with some mini tasks, here’s my little legal scenario created in minutes… students will use to debate but will also critique and extend the code trinket.io/python3/2738... #TeamCompSci

Discussed this with Y9 students this week as talking about why young people hack, one said ‘boredom’ - says it all 🤣

You can mute – but you can never leave. Why have WhatsApp groups become so stressful? | Polly Hudson There is the initial group. Then the side group. Then another splinter group. Suddenly, in your bones, you know the wrong message is going to end up with the wrong person, writes Polly Hudson

WhatsApp groups 📖 - opinion piece in Guardian this morning reminding us of the stress that some people find themselves needing to understand developing social etiquette. To mute or to leave!? If all in the group are admins, it is not possible to leave silently!!

New Scam!! I just got called by unknown number, message said they were from Indeed and to contact them on WhatsApp. I hung up before I listened to the number.…

‘I want to be a Lioness’: research shows more girls than ever engaging with football * Charity finds 36% of girls now attached to a football club * England’s Euros run has inspired youngsters, say coaches While defending their title is the big aim for the Lionesses this summer, their run to the Euro 2025 final in Switzerland has already delivered a broader success – another huge uplift in visibility for the women’s game, at elite and grassroots level. The continued progress of Sarina Wiegman’s side, who won the tournament in 2022 and reached the World Cup final a year later, has led to another increase in engagement on a range of measures.

‘I want to be a Lioness’: research shows more girls than ever engaging with football

That crossed my mind too 😆

Today we went to the local wildlife reserve and hunted fairies. My daughter caught them, my husband put them in a jar with cotton wool. Yes it wasn’t real but in my daughter’s imagination, they were there and it was one of the nicest afternoons we’ve had in a while 🤗 #familytime #gratitude

I’m in the process of registering as a graduate member of BPS in the hope of learning more.

Thank you! It was certainly a journey! I’m going to use the research to help promote the value of understanding the impact of AI on students’ psychology. I’m deeply interested in understanding cyberpsychology in education more than ever! It’s fascinating and very relevant to pedagogy.

however a backward method regression analysis produced 4 significant models. If I had produced data first the thrill of this reveal would’ve been lost!! My dissertation has just received a distinction 😁

I just can’t wait to release my dissertation findings, the study was underpowered and so inferences are cautionary, one of my hypotheses was supported, the other not so…

Absolutely it’s incredible that women’s sports are seen in the same light as men’s. The audiences are testament, in my opinion. Last night covered the full spectrum, scrappy and physical, skilled and crafted, lucky for us Serena played her cards. Equality in football is here to stay!! 👏

If we get another ENG v ESP final I think I may not survive after last night … let’s hope Tuesday we deal with Italy 🫣 Love the record breaking attendances and growth of women’s sport ⚽️ #WEuro2025

Certainly carried me through to completing my MSc dissertation on Sunday, now I’m struggling to find something else to do and drink 🤣

Teachers Should Focus On the Impact, Not the Approach, Education Scholar Says “I don't care how you teach,” Hattie said in May at the 37th APS Annual Convention in Washington, DC. “I care about the impact of your teaching.”

“I don’t care how you teach. I care about the impact of your teaching.” —John Hattie at #APS2025

At the APS–David Myers Distinguished Lecture, Hattie challenged educators to shift focus from delivery methods to how students actually learn. #Teaching #Learning

Sorry this is through Apple News but I found it quite interesting… this year 10 Vodafone masts deliver 5G via Cells on Wheels - expected to support +255 TB (2024) data apple.news/A1H9IUDBERS2... - ln 2024 Elton John 2hr gig - 450GB data was used by the crowd. Stats for Networking lesson #TeamCompSci

It’s something that was on Scam Interceptors, so is a central report, I’m assuming mass data produces statistics which point to groupings of numbers used for spam calls useful for intercepting and closing down these callers.

Spam Calls and Messages - message 7726 to report as many as we can and shut this nusance down!
… I just found out the latest landline number was a Vodafone number!

One of the many joys of parenting a child in Squirrels- sewing badges… coding? .. handling classes of 30 children?… easy… sewing these badges… not so 😂

Had the most wonderful day in Glastonbury today for the solstice, there were two reasons, the end of my MSc is bitter sweet, the end of the academic year on the horizon has been a time for renewal, the closure of chapters which have redefined me and my sense of self. Happy Solstice, 2025! 🙏🌅
