This is amazing news! We've developed a new 'one bag' product that has been found to help people survive major trauma injuries. It combines red blood cells and plasma. We worked with @QMUL and @NHSBartsHealth on this study, read about it here ➡️ bit.ly/3JE8PNj

Nausea and vomiting are common after surgery, which may be partly related to the noises patients are exposed to, even under general anaesthetic. Wearing noise-cancelling headphones while on the operating table reduces the risk newscientist.com/article/259…

Nepal produces only around 0.1% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Yet children, who are least responsible for the climate crisis, are among those bearing its heaviest consequences.

What will our weather be like this weekend? ⛅️ It’ll be largely warm and dry in the south with sunny intervals. But there will be some persistent rain with strong winds in parts of western Scotland on Sunday and fog patches in the south. Watch ⤵️ 🧵 1/2

First letter cues *prevent* pupils from thinking & learning effectively. They are not a good form of scaffolding (except perhaps in teaching languages). Latest episode of #OperationEducation 👇🏼

Another reason for paper-based homework systems. I’ve only ever used paper systems whenever I have been HoD. Far easier to motivate kids to work harder & much harder to game. Plus writing pages & admiring/celebrating this is more satisfying than a tech alternative.
Pupils are giving AI their PASSWORDS to do their homework! Students are reportedly allowing AI agents to log into platforms such as Sparx and complete entire assignments for them. These tools can now control a computer, move the mouse and carry out tasks on a user’s behalf. Are schools prepared for this next stage of AI-assisted cheating? 👇 #AI #Education #Teachers #EdTech #teacherlife #teachertok #teachersoftiktok
