“It was the place to sharpen ideas and think critically about what I do” #EduSkyAU

This! An idea. I set up Pineapple Charts where Ts could log a time (say P3 on Wed) where they are doing something they think others might benefit from watching. It didn’t have to be anything special. I arranged with leadership to help cover any interested Ts who wanted to watch. #EduSkyAU

I wonder whether a live #EduSkyAU event might be a good place to start. I’m picturing different locations across the country, where people meet up and post to the live chat. Could incorporate a TeachMeet at live event too (or not)? Thoughts?

This looks like a great school-wide activity. #EduSkyAU

“Respectfully challenging things. Sharing wins, supporting failures, building each other up.” #EduSkyAU

Thanks everyone for the deep discussion. I encourage you to keep sharing about what you want the #EduSkyAU community should become. Throw the ideas into the ether and let's see what we can create!

Even we forget the #EduSkyAU hashtag sometimes!

This is a thing! #EduSkyAU

A6 Answer #2 I foresee #EduSkyAU as a starting point to jointly discover a new, reimagined #PLN. A place and space for creative sharing, deep dialogue and friendship. #EduSkyAU

A6 I think as we move into this #AI world, personal connection is going to be so much more valued. I would love to see live events. I think a move to the #metaverse where I can see people and talk with them live might help virtually. Nothing like sharing around a table with friends! #EduSkyAU

Q6 Let's imagine for a moment! What could professional learning networks look like? How might we help create this ideal network where we both contribute and learn from one another? #EduSkyAU @eduskyauteam.bsky.social

I forgot to mention the #GameChangers podcast! This was huge on my drive each day to Perth College. I now get to fanboy with @adrianodiprato.bsky.social in real life. #EduSkyAU

"Creators of learning, not just regurgitating the curriculum" #EduSkyAU

"Real dialogue > passive scrolling" #EduSkyAU

A5 I think for me this depends upon the context. There are some conversations where I don't feel I have much to contribute. However, I was brought up to give back to community. I think offering what you have, whatever that contribution is important to grow. #EduSkyAU

Q5 It's all a bit of give and take. I am keen to understand what helps you contribute your own ideas to the community.💡💭 #EduSkyAU @eduskyauteam.bsky.social

"Constantly curating my PLN makes all the difference" #EduSkyAU

A4 The Google Innovation Academy #SYD17 #GoogleEI was extraordinary learning and to be connected to international educators really changed my view on a #PLN might consist of. Also, #TeachMeet was great for meeting local Ts who were trying and sharing helped to build my local PLN. #EduSkyAU

Q4 🔥 You guys are on fire! 🔥 Tell me about your secret treasures. 💎💎💎 What are the 'hidden gems' that we all should all know about? #EduSkyAU @eduskyauteam.bsky.social

"It's the interactions between people that make a PLN" #EduSkyAU

This! #EduSkyAU

A3 For me, it's about finding people that encourage me to try. I want to hear about what people are doing in their own classrooms. I want to hear what's failed, too! And fostering relationships... I am trying my best at building a space with a great team working alongside me. #EduSkyAU
