Active April - Day 3: Listen to your body and be grateful for what it can do actionforhappiness.org/activโฆ #ActiveApril

The stage of maturity of your learning/improvement network or community of practice impacts how much difference it can make. @SFU Faculty of Science identifies three stages:
1) "Knowledge Weaving"ย prioritises the exchange of tacit knowledge within the network or community. Collaboration & connection enable valuable experiential knowledge to be exchanged.
2) "Collaborative Learning" is about taking that tacit knowledge further to support members to experiment & learn, generating new & emergent approaches which are further shared.
3) "Systems of influence" extend influence beyond the community or network by advocating & supporting systemic change in response to complex challenges.
Many networks/CoPs in health & care never get beyond stage one, when their potential is so much greater.

Fun April Fool's Day idea! Serve Brown E's. Follow up with actual brownies later. You can also tie into lessons on the letter E, the silent E, spelling with E, words with E and so forth. taunieverett.com/april-foolsโฆ

Humans have always thrived not by resisting disruption, but by adapting to it. Disruption is accelerating at an incredible pace so we have to adapt faster than ever before.
Some things remain the same: developing deeper foundational capabilities ("meta-skills") that help us adapt, learn & create value in any environment. Three meta-skills to thrive in the age of AI:
1) Lifelong learning driven by curiosity
2) Experimentation & continuous improvement
3) Collaboration with others

Good AI activity for students to try to see how their descriptions are visualized by an AI image creation tool. Follow up by having students discuss with a partner how they can revise their sentences for better results and compare the outcomes.
AI-powered creativity in the classroom! ๐จ Students write a sentence, generate an image with @AdobeForEdu Firefly, and compare. It's descriptive writing meets AI! ๐ก@JoeMarquez70
