I know a joke about imposter syndrome, but I don't think I'm the right person to tell it.

Adding a new swing bar to our election results page - for the first time, we'll be showing the primary swing to and away from major parties vs minor parties and independents. Here's how it looks using 2022 results for testing - should be an interesting one to watch tonight! #AusPol #AustraliaVotes
Two bar charts showing the change in vote on a two party preferred basis, and then vote to and away major parties

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.

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'.

The intake survey for my Fourier analysis students asks them to plot their familiarity with the complex exponential function on these axes.
"compass alignment" meme with familiarity and enthusiasm as axes.

Did you know we're all placed onto different Bluesky servers, and they're named after mushrooms??

You can find out what mushroom server you're on by looking yourself up on Clearsky clearsky.app

Naarm Melb folks - if it's too hot to stay home check with your local Council. I see on Facebook Moonee Valley are opening a couple of libraries which are usually closed on Sundays as cool spaces. Other Councils will be too. 🥵

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.

Posting this again because a lot of people said they found it helpful! Guide to ALT text: www.perkins.org/resource/how...
ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

In Iceland, on Christmas Eve, people give each other books so they can spend the evening drinking cocoa & reading. It’s called, Jolabokaflod, the Christmas book flood. I’ve never been more in love with Iceland than I am right now ♥️♥️
