For three years Australia has proudly supported the brave people of Ukraine in their struggle to defend their sovereignty against the brutality of Russian aggression and in support of international law.
Australia stands with Ukraine. 🇦🇺🇺🇦

hot take(?) but as someone doing Y12 next year i reckon a lot of the stress around getting a certain ATAR result is really awful and unhealthy for teens
yes celebrate good results but idk it's a bit of a weird culture for something that may ultimately not have an impact at all
VCE students from across the state have unveiled their ATAR results after years of hard work at school. Follow our live blog for all the action: theage.com.au/national/victo…

🌟 Watch the Recording of Our Insightful Workshop! 🌟
'Bridging the practice-theory in higher education using action research'
Did you miss our recent workshop on how communities and universities can work together to tackle complex social issues? Don't worry! You can now watch the recording.
As communities and universities seek to make a difference, they are increasingly encouraged and funded to collaborate. Ideally, this collaboration should bring diverse perspectives to create context-specific and purpose-driven actions. However, this isn't always the case, as communities often feel they are being 'done to' rather than being equal partners.

Proctorio just added new functionality to make AI proctoring even more invasive. There's a companion app students can be forced to install on their phones. They've added AI detection. They've added more video surveillance flags. They've added more browser flags. It's obscene! 💩

"Like many test-takers of color, Yemi-Ese, who is Black, has spent the past three semesters using software that reliably struggles to locate his face. Now whenever he sits down to take an exam using Proctorio, he turns on every light in his bedroom..." #Proctorio 1/4

“Just as the national Government sets fees for domestic students, so too can it change those fees. Fairness can be restored,” said @ProfGWilliams.
Important intervention from the @westernsydneyu VC, calling for a reduction in soaring university fees. #auspol
