vimeo.com/1056619122 This is worth 7 minutes to watch. So much to be grateful for. So much to fight for. Canada Strong.

Great to be part of the NOIIE Indigenous Impact teams today and reinforcing the importance of checking for impact all the way along. @noiie.ca

This is truly terrifying and a must read. URGENT WARNING: Trump is Planning to Invade Canada & Greenland open.substack.com/pub/malcolmn...

Chretien’s grit, Trudeau’s sincerity, and Carney’s seriousness. A powerful combination on display.

Watching the Liberal convention and the selection of Mark Carney gives me hope. Seeing two daughters introducing this dad’s - moving. Canada Strong.

Had a wonderful three days with educators in South Australia. A privilege to be here. New connections, growing network. @noiie.ca

Three magical days in Uluru. This agreement with the Ananguri people is a good reflection of NOIIE’s commitment to every learner crossing the stage with dignity, purpose and options. @noiie.ca

ICSEI 2025 is a wrap. Fantastic opportunities for new learning, strengthening friendships and deepening impact.

The benefit of looping. Why isn’t this a common practice?

Superb session to kick off ICSEI. Look at the impact of student curiosity. @noiie.ca

Worth a read.

The BCSSA Fall Conference highlight for me last week had to be Andy Hargreaves encouraging each and every #bced systems leader to be a buffalo. In fact, be a herd of buffalo. When a storm is brewing, buffalo don't try to outrun the storm or hide from it. They turn into the storm. A timely message.

In my book Unlocked, I share several ways assessment powers the creative process. It is always the kind of assessment from which students make decisions and this is a template example during the Exploration phase. www.solutiontree.com/unlocked.html #unlockcreativity
