@three_squares It's boring (because it requires no fantasy or magic at all), but... dog, dog, dog!
@BGrueskin Ha. As an aunt to 8, I couldn't agree more. (On the other hand, I'm under pressure to give THEM presents etc, because they'll be taking care of me - I hope - in my old age 😬 )

This is one of my favourite sources of inspiration for coding education ✨

Are you technocentric? Shifting from technology to people - Raspberry Pi

In our seminar with Pratim Sengupta, he highlighted the problems of focusing on technology instead of context and people in computing education.

Are Pets the New Probiotic?

Pets, especially dogs, may have a salutary effect on health because they add to the rich array of microbes in our homes, to the benefit of our immune systems.

@anne ewwww. How annoying!

Spoke to a new (for me) doctor yesterday and had a lengthy (for the NHS!) chat about the microbiome. As well as the things I'm doing already, she suggested "playing in the dirt" and perhaps was surprised by my receptiveness to that idea! She suggested going to the least forested/managed natural area I can access and just interacting with nature there. She also suggested interacting with dogs - so my neighbour is going to lend us her dog more often. Go on, the #microbiome!

Any teachers in Scotland or the rest of the UK on this platform? We’d love to connect if so!

We provide resources and services for schools to help them address homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia through teaching and learning.

This includes workshops for learners, CPD for teachers, and a whole host of teaching resources covering themes including LGBT history, role models, and rights.

@lindsey And for me, I don't fully understand yet the whole thing of being with two or more instances. So I'll just stick to the one for now.
