Great job Anna, thank you! #EduSkyAU
A6. Check out scienceandtechnologyAustralia.org.au and their superstars of STEM. Some of the unis also provide programs for young scientists to get exposure & prep for conference speaking. Tap into these networks as the benefit goes both ways! #EduSkyAU
LOL I'm actually still no good at maths Asha but my inability to make sense of Maths has never stopped me. I've focussed on what I can do well and Maths is not the only determinant of academic success. #EduSkyAU
A4. Engage them in primary, by secondary it's too late as that is when it's not seen as cool and the influence of the boys becomes more powerful #EduSkyAU
Never heard of a diamond school before Anna. What state was that? There are a number of different approaches. I just know that compared to the national 6% take up of STEM & advanced maths subjects, at the girls school I was at we had 60%+ take up year on year. #EduSkyAU
Absolutely. I was hoping I might catch you this trip but the agenda each day is just too good and my FOMO would kill me if I missed any of it!
A3. They also need support from within their chosen fields. Young grads need to know where they can find and build supportive networks. This is probably more a job for tertiary educators than K-12. #EduSkyAU
A3. You can't be what you can't see so to inspire girls we need to work harder to bring scientists into our classrooms, not just scientists but engineers and IT professionals too! #EduSkyAU
You too ADP!
A2. I think my response might be contentious but having worked in girls Ed for 11 years and now in a coed environment I'd at least be separating them into streams where they could focus on areas of interest to women and girls #EduSkyAU
Michelle Gallagher back in the Twitter days was an inspiring scientist, from Melbourne, who was networking and supporting young female scientists to publish and build profiles. #EduSkyAU
Just back after taking Syd colleagues to a Melb rooftop bar- my obligation as a Melburnite. I did say, "Adriano will understand if I'm late!"

Our young people deserve more than a system of broken dreams.

"If your child is born this year, they are likely going to live through +1.5°C of warming by the time they are 25. A fact that is likely going to cause a 40% to 50% drop in the global food supply and a reduction of 2.5 to 4 billion in the global population by 2050, at a minimum." #wow
What percentage of students are you willing to falsely accuse of cheating with AI?
There is a trade-off between false accusations and detection rates for AI. At a 10% false positive rate, detectors find 80% or less of AI content. At a 1% rate most find 60% or less.
Don’t trust AI detectors!
"Finland aims to achieve the best financial literacy in the world by 2030, and projects such as Yrityskylä are a big part of the push...She added that 'learning by doing' or through gamification was vital in addition to more theoretical lessons."
