How might you consider your beliefs and values as an educator? How might they shape your curriculum decisions involving digital technology?
Come along to my workshop next week (in-person in Wellington or online anywhere!) with Music Education Network and utilise the self-assessment survey tool I've developed from my PhD research!
The goal of the workshop is for music teachers to leave empowered with a deeper understanding of themselves as music educators and how they can personally respond to the evolving landscape of music education with digital technology.

💡 How can a Large Language Model be a science-policy advisor in water conflicts?
My amazing colleagues, Ehsan Nabavi, Ehsan A. and Junzhe Huang are going to shed light on this fascinating topic! We'll discuss how LLMs can act as science communicators, specifically in the context of the complex Helmand River conflict.
Join us as we explore the potential of AI to bridge communication gaps and facilitate more informed decision-making in water management.

As we approach the end of daylight saving time next month, I'm going to echo this reminder. EDT, CDT, MDT, and similar all specifically stand for whatever *daylight* time, while EST, CST, MST, and similar all stand for whatever *standard* time. So for example, EST and CDT are both names for UTC-5. Normally, this doesn't matter, unless you're interacting with people in Arizona, where they don't observe daylight saving time, so it's always MST, not MDT. Like if you told me a meeting tomorrow is at 10:00 CST, I'm going to assume you actually meant 10:00 CDT. But especially as various countries transition into and out of daylight saving time, it's important to distinguish. For example, if you keep a meeting at 10:00 ET, that means it's moving from 10:00 EDT to 10:00 EST. But if you keep a meeting at 10:00 EDT, that technically means it's shifting to 9:00 EST.
I’m seeking a Senior Product Marketing Manager role in software (biometrics, government IDs, geolocation, identity and access management, cybersecurity, health) as an individual contributor on a collaborative team.
My pet peeve.
If you are in the eastern part of the United States, and you have a meeting at 10:00 tomorrow, don't say that your meeting is at 10:00 am EST.
Your meeting is presumably at 10:00 am EDT.
Don't make me do math in the morning to find out the true time of your meeting.
This misuse of EST, CST, MST, PST, etc. during our summer almost makes it worthwhile to move to Arizona (non-Native American portions) over the hot summer.
Almost.

What’s one thing you learned in an education session this week? 💬
Here's a sneak peek:
Break it up, speed it up — Spread out the awards over several days during your event. Take photos after the session, not between each award (which is another time suck). Instead of speeches, use brief videos to highlight the recipients’ accomplishments. Hire a seasoned emcee to enhance the experience and to keep things running on time. Eliminate thanking the academy.
