Morning, does anyone know of companies that specialise in the refurb of science labs? We need to get someone on site fairly quickly to do a survey and report for us as part of summer works application. TIA #edchatie

Summer reading and relevance to teaching the electrochemistry portion of the new Chemistry specification. No rest for the wicked. #edchatie #lcreform

Would anybody have a pdf for the attached image? We want it for planning new LC specifications. ResearchGate are slow to approve me (going into months waiting) as my academic research is all in my maiden name. I haven’t been able to source it anywhere else. Thanks in advance. #edchatie #AEN #SEND

I hope everyone has read Section 5 and Section 6 that the unions are voting on with the lens of “will this help me deliver the new Senior Cycle specification?”. Talk so some Tranche 1 teachers about the “quality” of their experiences so far. I am voting “no”. #edchatie

Finally got around to watching @trythisteaching.bsky.social webinar on Adaptive Teaching; Low Effort, High Impact T&L Ideas to support students. Going to try do better with my word banks and use “so that”, refine my visuals and ditch focus on neatness. #edusky #iteachchem #iteachbio

Super day at the @irishsciteach.bsky.social annual conference. Great to see some of the textbooks in the flesh, listen to lots of great discussions and ideas and have chats with other science teachers. Well done to the Kildare branch on a super programme. #edchatie #ISTA25

Am I the only one to see the irony of an Irishman in a foreign country, on the day the Irish worldwide celebrate a foreigner’s achievements in Ireland, talking negatively about foreigners in a country built by foreigners?

Took our first year’s to see the #MuseumoftheMoon at St. Canice’s Cathedral. It was lots of fun getting them to find the names of the craters and finding the landing site. Plus it looked amazing. #ES4 #JCScience

It’s been a busy week so far. Had Cluster Day 2 for Biology and we had an excellent presenter. We have 7 Biology teachers in school but can only go to Oide sessions 2 at a time. Still no closer to making teaching sequence decisions but feeling better about it all. #edchatie #lcrefrom

Looking forward to getting my hands on this at the end of the month. Liked the idea of thematic approach (before I had an Oide days) and the types questioning. #edchatie

With 4 exam classes this year, got some time to work on new LC Chemistry specification teaching sequence. Felt stuck for awhile but generated “themes” & started writing retrieval practise statements and feeling excited about teaching it. Good progress made. #edchatie #cogscisci #iteachchemistry

I think teaching the new specs is a great chance to use #cogsci to help our students deal with the huge amount of content they are going to have to deal with, in less time then they have now. I just need time to figure out how I am going to do it. Anyone have any bottled and going spare? #edchatie

Loved listening to this DOAC podcast, lots of it resonated but this: how impactful changing a game name from “community” to “Wall Street” was in terms of people’s “profits”. Something I will be using more in the classroom. “We’re all in this together” - HSM 🎤 youtu.be/VHUrdELKjDw?...

Delighted to reach this milestone with @teachertapp.bsky.social. In the app, you get asked 3 short teacher relevant questions every day with results posted the next day. The data is really interesting & it would be great to have more Irish education input into the final results. #edchatie
