@thetitanborn , Sun Tzu's most important advice in "The Art of War" is to avoid being drawn into battle on the enemy's terms. They want to fight you there because they are confident of winning. Often the greatest victory is achieved by not showing up on the battlefield.

Some (hopefully amusing) venting on students copying - not that they do it, but that they do it so BADLY - https://bluecerealeducation.com/blog/can-i-get-copy

Have a great Sunday.

Hi #Introduction I'm from small village in SW Scotland (still with close ties) Art School 1966-73, teaching, LA advisor, graphics, education consultant, consultant University of Hull on international & media projects. Retired but keep my oar in. Keen to discuss & share stuff about #Archives #Art #Design #OpenEducation #DigitalCulture #VisualCulture #Learning #Technology

Otherwise #Music. Rock/Folk/Blues etc. Haven’t played for a while. #Travel, #Birding Leeds United season ticket holder!

I don't think I have enough followers that this would get to anyone learning or interested in #javascript.

Either way, here's a longer and steppable version of the short snipped above.

I'm Tom: part-time secondary #maths teacher in the Midlands of the UK; part-time freelance #museum #learning consultant trying to convince more #museums to take advantage of the maths in their stories & collections.

Have just been awarded my MA in Education - this week!

I'm here because I think relationships are key to education.

Decolonising the curriculum involves more diverse content & "may look very different in Medicine, Physics & English. It isn't about removing white authors from reading lists but about creating a genuine interest in the forces of racism & colonialism & its impact in the present & the way education is delivered" -Dr Monica Chavez Munoz

I create a lot of things to make teaching easier and more efficient for myself, and then I share the ones that work. I created this spreadsheet for grouping my students intentionally based on my collected data. I use this several days a week. Huge time saver. http://www.litandtech.com/2014/03/group-creator-make-groups-fast.html #GoogleEdu #teachers #edtech #googlesheets

Great infographic, that fits with a #Stoic outlook.

"We have the power to hold no opinion about a thing and to not let it upset our state of mind."

This piece of #stoic #philosophy from Marcus Aurelius served me well for a very long time. Then Twitter happened.

No more.
