I wonder what the morning will bring? I love the snow, especially when I was a child & school was closed. But the idea of a snow day being a day off school is pretty much gone 😟. Many schools now set online learning activities for children to complete. But don’t forget to set some time for play too!

Worth getting an AI view?

Image of text which reads:

Great question! While “learner” and “student” are often used interchangeably, they do have subtle differences:
Learner: This term is broader and can refer to anyone who is acquiring knowledge or skills, regardless of the setting. A learner can be of any age and learning in any context, whether it’s formal education, self-study, or practical experience.
Student: This term is more specific and typically refers to someone who is enrolled in a formal educational institution, such as a school, college, or university. A student usually follows a structured curriculum and is assessed through exams and assignments.
In essence, all students are learners, but not all learners are students. Does that help clarify things?

I’m grateful for the tools to protect my Wordpress site but why the heck would there have been 11k attempts to hack it. Must be something valuable on there that I don’t know about 😂

Screenshot from my WordPress account showing that it has saved my site from reviewing 29 spam comments and protected me from 11,000 blocked brute force attacks.
