A government think-tank has named 35 "plausible" global disruptions that could reshape Canada and the world in the near future. Topping the list: misinformation and disinformation created by both people and AI. cbc.ca/news/politics/next-di… .

Heartbreaking, #Iceland #ForcesofNature, #EmergencyPreparedness, Hmmm one might think you could learn about this type of event in Gr 11 Ontario Geography?? CGF3M?? @Sflecce
I am devastated by todays event. I considered not posting images that show terrible tragedy to people’s homes. I want to make it clear that if there are any news outlets out there that need free content to raise awareness, let me know, nobody should make money on this!

Enjoy some insane drone footage of Iceland’s volcano. The drone didn’t survive, but the footage did. Skilled piloting by @airbazoo

Teaching map scale: Here’s a way to break down what we mean by 1:25 000 then show examples for 1km, 750m, 500m and 250m drawn on a simple practice grid. Followed by consolidation questions. Link in pinned post - KS3 folder. #edutwitter #geography #geographyteacher

The culture of a school is created by everyone in the school. Walk in a school and see how the front office staff talks and interacts or the custodians or teachers in the hallway. Yes the admin influences it but everyone is ultimately responsible for the culture of a school.

The #geography of education funding. What is where? Why there? Why care? What next?

We need an all out phone ban in K-12.
New Washington Post editorial: All schools should go phone free. Cites stunning stat that 97% of teens say they use their phones during school hours, esp. for TikTok. Phones are kryptonite for learning. Parents: please send the editorial to school admins washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

A “gong show” 😢
Schools are now structured so that the overwhelming number of student misbehaviors essentially have ZERO consequences. This is horrible for teachers…but it’s even worse for the students who want to learn!

🙌 Some geocachers love the #journey of a complex Multi-Cache while others prefer to socialize at an Event. Different cache types help ensure that the game has something for everyone! 🙌 🤔 What is your favorite #geocache type? Why? 🤔 #geocaching
