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

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

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

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

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.
