I'm looking through the first chapter and really enjoying how clearly and succintly concepts are being explained and the discussion videos for digging into the key points.

I hadn't heard the term "minimal computing" until today but the way it is discussed in the intro to this special issue feels like I've been waiting for it for years now!

Just learned about TKSST, a large curated collection of actually interesting, varied, and kid-friendly (but not kid-focussed) YouTube videos - and I want to watch them all. Going to start with this one: thekidshouldseethis.com/post/a-firef...

When botanist Richard Deakin examined Rome’s Colosseum in the 1850s, he found 420 species of plant growing in the ruins: cypresses and ilex, pea plants and more than 50 types of grasses. But some flowers growing there mystified him. They were so rare they were found nowhere else in Europe.

My colleagues Beth (@nny.bsky.social) and Emily have put together this post - it's about how we've been trying to accomodate all the different ways our brains work, in part so as to better harness their ⚡power⚡

Sick of moaning about the state of the internet to my friends and loved ones, I'm thinking of finally doing something to improve my enjoyment of it - reengage with an RSS reader. Anyone use these and know a good one?

We read and posted about @emilymbender.bsky.social 's excellent article 'Resisting Dehumanisation in the age of 'AI''. Our reflective takeaways: What might be the unacknowledged ways we contribute to the dehumanising impacts of AI? As part of the 'informed public', how can we be better informed?

Speaking of the utterly broken Twitter search (RIP), here are instructions for searching on Bluesky. It requires a little more from you, but once you know the prefixes, I've found the search works just fine. bsky.social/about/blog/0...

Reminder that digital inclusion is not only about enabling students to use technologies it’s about giving them agency to know and decide when NOT to use technologies as well.

Finally read the Ted Chiang article about AI and art that's quoted everywhere (so quotable!). It articulates something key about what art (or creativity) is - decision-making. Lots. And this applies as much to student assessments as it does to novel-writing. 1/3 www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Why A.I. Isn’t Going to Make Art

To create a novel or a painting, an artist makes choices that are fundamentally alien to artificial intelligence.

In the UK there's approx. 823m unused/broken tech items hiding in “drawers of doom” containing as much as 38.5k tonnes of copper - enough to provide 30% of copper needed for UK’s planned transition to a decarbonised electricity grid by 2030. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Items such as cables and old tech could contain £266m worth of metal vital for decarbonisation drive, study finds
