In honour of the best book I have read this year, I give you The Promises of Giants by @JohnAmaechi as interpreted by #TedLasso GIFs
1. I Promise to View Myself Critically, But Not Cruelly
2. I Promise to Commit Fully to Success
3. I Promise to be Bold and Vulnerable
4. I Promise to Act with Vigilance Against My Biases
5. I Promise to Reject Excuses and Embrace Discomfort
6. I Promise to Tend to Mind and Body
7. I Promise to Reflect Your Potential
8. I Promise to See You as an Individual and Not as a Job Description
9. I Promise to Deliver Timely and Effective Feedback
10. I Promise to Be Present, and Not Only When I Need You
11. I Promise to Bear Responsibility for Driving the Culture
12. I Promise to View the Organization Critically and Truthfully
13. I Promise to Promote Everyday Inclusion Based on Earned Disclosure
14. I Promise to Create an Environment That People Never Want to Leave
#TedLasso and The Promises of Giants create a beautiful Venn diagram with something actually attainable at the centre - kindness.

It's that time of the year when fresh-faced medical students finally get to see what it is really like on the wards.

Here is my intro talk for @western_health Image
(As an aside this was the real opening slide but... Comic Sans is not going to help anyone engage on Zoom) Image
This is not a talk on self-defence techniques, or dealing with active shooters, but how to deal with those challenging scenarios that tend to blow up in your face if you are not careful.

So, we've covered a bit of learning theory for #EdTech2020 and @Monash_CPDMOE

Now for look at Twitter and the Learner Image
Most of us learners love social media (Luo et al. 2019) - it satisfies Kirkpatrick level 1 - but can it do more?

Back in 2013, @petercartledge , Miller & @drbobphillips performed a systematic review and found 1047 articles looking at #SoMe and identified just 9 looking at outcome measures - mainly related to learner satisfaction

So let's start with a little bit of theory... #Edtech2020 Image
"...learning takes place through activity, mediated by others" (Vygotsky 1980)

And so, just by reading and interacting with this thread, you are learning something (very meta!)

Even before the internet existed, Ilich (1972) dreamt of a world "where educational systems are comprised of networks... where learners can access knowledge at any time."

Sounds very much like what we have today.

I was asked to give the wellbeing talk for the new doctors starting @western_health

I decided not to talk about how we need to drink kale smoothies, do yoga classes before work, and get 8 hours of sleep a night...

1/x
You see, there is a tendency, to speak in platitudes when doing this sort of thing - bolstering people up with a "You can do it... if only you do X"

2/x
But it's not all about me, me, me, is it? It's not about what I can do to keep myself healthy?

It's about what we can do for each other?

Is farting an aerosol-generating procedure?

A tweetorial…
When I was researching this article on aerosol-generating procedures the question just popped into my mind.

dontforgetthebubbles.com/aerosol-genera…
And it seems like a lot of you wanted to know the answer too.

As someone who has done some odd things in the name of science, I felt uniquely qualified to get to the bottom of it if @xandvt and @DoctorChrisVT weren't going to do it.

I recently gave the commencement address @RCHMelbourne.

Here is it is if you missed it...
"My name is Andrew Tagg. I'm 47 years old and I'm a failure"

And I'm okay with that.
I have failed at high school and in medical school. I have failed as a junior doctor and as a consultant. I have failed academically and professionally.

And that is okay.
