Laura Hill at student assembly |
I initially joined Twitter to align ideas for The Great Story World Mix-Up, a book series I write with my daughters, with the
needs of educators. I was surprised to find teachers teaming together to navigate navigate a raging tech sector that was changing everything in its wake, including education. To me this change is exciting! The downside I found is my daughter’s
education is not keeping pace.
You're crafting my child's future |
