The calm before the storm. #CreativeGalway

Excited to be at #edge26summit today at the impressive Dexcom stadium in Galway. Looking forward to an interesting day of discussion and networking.

Refreshing to hear from Christina Pozzi- having been through the education system does not make you an expert in education, schools are not a machine to be fixed. Collaboration with students, teachers is essential for developing useful tools. #EITEdTech25

#EITEdTech25 has started in beautiful Brussels. Looking forward to speaking on the second panel - about student digital skills. We want our students to have the best learning outcomes, and teachers to have the best tools. Start with people, not platforms. ❤️🙏

Great to be at Running up that Hill - about sustainability of small independent theatre companies in Ireland, NI and Scotland. I am learning so much! #CreativeGalway

3 days in the new job. Made some progress today. Feels like 2 steps forward and 1 step back, with a few hurdles and obstacles to work around.

I swore I wouldn’t do this again. Bus at 2:15. Arrived airport 4:45 for 6:30 flight. Too early. All for #OER25

Ouch, as an Irish person this hurts. Especially from a company that claims to be leading the way in sustainability. #GreenWashing #SpeirGorm

An Irish company is producing "leading sustainable packaging" by planting invasive species in Colombia, locking communities out of their lands, and allegedly paying off an armed group. Welcome to the spoils of capitalism. https://www.planetcritical.com/p/capitalism-spoils-everything
