Sitting in the garden appreciating the clouds The midlands are so frazzled and we're not even the driest place in the UK. I've looked at clouds from both sides now.
Joining a zoom meeting to find out more about the new Labout leader...#labour
If you had any doubts about the nasty party and their lack of care for the rest of us, read George Monbiot's Heat is danger piece in today's Guardian. As a former teacher this jumped out at me.
Glad to see this piece in the Guardian today. Cory Doctorow on #AI and his next publication.
"it is clear that linguistic and human rights often go hand in hand"
Love #Rosen and his take on life, politics, absurdité and faith.
Why resist #Palentir ? 'cos democracy! Peter Thiel, billionnaire owner, doesn't believe citizens have rights...

Any more memories you wish to share that prove your digital yeti status #altc ?
Good pushback on the @theguardian.com utilitarian argument around #language learning. Shame they couldn't spell français!
I recommend this book to give an insight into the #broligarchs who believe they can be what they're not,thanks to AI. It's all about these men.
Looking forward to meeting up with Marcin Klebin again in today's @ft30uk.bsky.social webinar. Here's a memory from his visit to Warwick with student teachers from Krakow in 2018.
#Garage "plans"are all about his financial position and that of his mates.
The Higher Education Academy published this report I wrote in 2013 and now it is getting a resurgence of interest so I am sharing it here with you all in case it is of interest. #virtualexchange #telecollaboration #CALL #languages tinyurl.com/yc8dbsmu
Lovely to hear from Emma on #AmplifyFE and the support and networking they offer to practitioners. An impactful project in digital teaching and learning -find your connections!
Very interesting presentation on #CALL from #Bangor University. So much work done to provide technical support for Welsh language learning, pushing for a goal of 1Million speakers. Did you know that their building was where the #Beatles learned to meditate? via @ft30uk.bsky.social
