Thanks to everyone - around 100 people - who joined my online seminar today as part of my Ruth Wong Visiting Professorship at the National Institute of education, Singapore. "Being a Teacher Leader in the Age of AI'.

Pleased to have lunch with senior leaders from the National Institute of Education at Nanyang Technological University Singapore today to discuss digital technology and AI in education.

Today, as part of my Ruth Wong Visiting Professorship, I had a wonderful conversation with Heads of Departments from across the National Institute of Education at NTU, Singapore. We discussed issues related to data, technology, neuroscience, knowledge, interdisciplinary & AI in Education

Over the next two weeks I’ll be in Singapore at the National Institute of Education NIE as the Dr Ruth Wong Visiting Professor. Ruth Wong was a passionate educationalist and pioneer. I am honoured to hold a visiting professorship I’m her name.
