Happy pride month! 🏳️‍🌈 Pride is about not just persisting, but taking life back from the fringes of society, thriving in spite of adversity. It isn't vanity; It's solidarity and defiance. Sometimes protest, sometimes celebration, however the political pendulum swings, we remain.

Once met a British oil exec in Lagos. The day before, he’d been to a disastrous party at a top minister’s house. The invitation said ‘Fancy dress compulsory’. He had no fancy dress, but was an enthusiastic scuba diver and by chance had his gear with him. He dressed up, took a cab to the house, rather surprising the driver, squelched up the drive in wet-suit, mask & fins, climbed the steps, and found himself in the midst of the party. All the men were wearing dinner jackets, since in Nigeria ‘fancy dress’ means ‘black tie’. He fled back down the drive and understandably had problems getting a cab to take him back to his hotel.

Late in the year I know, but my current school, American International School of Bucharest is looking for an MYP Mathematics teacher. Contact me for more details if you know of anyone!

My school pays you £20 every time you cover a lesson. Or if you do up to 6 cover lessons you can get the day off paid.

If you're a teacher, and you feel like you're all caught up on work, you forgot something and you're actually screwed.

10 years ago Barak Rosenshine published one of the most useful reviews of research into effective teaching ever written. It's a slam-dunk hit in the UK, but barely talked about in the USA. If you're a USA educator that has never heard of it, here it is: aft.org/periodical/american-…

the machine refused to recognize my humanity until i professed to believe that a sign painted to look like a traffic light is indeed a traffic light.

I vividly recall being in a computer lab at Bham, on a Vax terminal, when someone came down from the PC lab and said, you've got to see this ....

It's COLUMBIA not COLOMBIA! (bit of a reverse to the normal correction there @key_aero @PublishingKey)

Fascinating post and graphic

In Physics labs a phone is an amazing tool that has revolutionised teaching by and learning in the subject. Video analysis, slow motion recordings, accelerometers, magnetic field sensors and more. Yes phone use must be considered but blanket bans don't work for me.

Reading about Schrödinger's terrible behaviour in @PhysicsWorld makes me think about how how us high school teachers should take this news. Certainly makes for a teachable moment. E.g. if I show @jimalkhalili 's Atom episode I will need to pause and discuss. #TalkPhysics

This animation shows 14 false-color images of the Padma river in Bangladesh over the course of 30 years, between 1988 and 2018, and shows the continuous evolution of meanders that water and time generate in the environment close to a river [read more: buff.ly/2B9DBMz]

A "fog dome" is a very unusual and rare weather phenomenon. The most likely explanation is that it's caused by a source of heat close to the ground, possibly an agricultural building or a relatively warm pool of water. This one has been spotted in 2016 ow.ly/zRe130oHEAy

Of the many things I miss about Colombia when I'm not there, the hummingbirds rank highly.
