Today the Australian Association of Mathematics Teachers published their position paper on 'Pedagogy in Mathematics'. Thanks to #AAMT for being a reasoned and balanced voice in maths education. Proud to play a role in bringing this to life. 🔗 go.aamt.edu.au/2025Pedagogy #MathsEducation #MathsEdAU
An infographic showing three key practices of effective mathematics teaching: purposeful planning, developing mathematical proficiency, and adapting to and supporting all learners. It finishes with 'No single pedagogical approach can meet the needs of every mathematics learner'.

#NSWHealth #NSWCHO Patients are not second class citizens and are objectively at more risk than staff statistically speaking . This is not okay.
Raina MacIntyre @Globalbiosec
Was in hospital just b4 Xmas for 10 days. Wore mask. No staff masked, despite rising covid in Sydney. One day I saw staff were suddenly masked..asked why. Was told there was covid on ward. No other patients told or protected. I had masked from day 1 and used antiviral nasal sprays, and got out without infection. The day I was discharged, the outbreak was spreading, and finally they began testing all patients. Shocking lack of rights for patients. No right to safe healthcare, because covid is ignored as a preventable nosocomial infection. Going to hospital has become a gamble on personal safety.

More to say on burnout and I'm probably going to boost it a few times because folks need to hear it: Burnout is a form of brain damage. It happens when stress conditions persist until they damage our brains. It's an injury that needs to heal, not a weakness that needs to be pushed through.
