We are very concerned about the events in Iran following the death of Mahsa Amini. We want to ensure that our Iranian students and staff, who might be personally impacted, know that the university is here for them. (1/2)

Am also thinking about the ways in which parents might be drawn into the production of performative educational artefacts during home learning i.e. via the curation of electronic content to demonstrate engagement.
#ZeBUSS #uniflensburg Dr Martin Bittner @SussexCIRCY fascinating archival research using letters from state governments to schools and families about COVID-19 to ask 'what does this tell us about the child, the family and the school?' @transform_in_ed

Really fascinating. I have been thinking about how positivism as an ontology grounded in certainty is often presented as ‘rational’ and ‘scientific’ when many physicists posit a far more chaotic/entangled/unpredictable/uncertain view of the universe and its unfolding phenomena.
