Truly an honor, beyond words, to have been interviewed by the legendary! Initially, I didn't realise how privileged I was, but it became clear after hearing from my Aussie friends and colleagues who were envious!😬@ABCscience #abcscienceshow @AERC_UniMelb @EduMelb

Big thanks to @AustralianData for organizing the event and generously providing travel funding. As someone who was almost ready to give up beforehand @CLEinBNE, it’s still surreal to see how far I've come with your support and encouragement.
Pleasure meeting you, Abele Stephan! Your work, like the scenario-based interactive assessment, is truly impressive. Our talk on critical thinking was inspiring. Glad you enjoyed Melbourne. Looking forward to meeting again! @AbeleStephan @AERC_UniMelb @EduMelb

Engaging talk! @EduMelb Provocative ideas on the importance of large-scale assessment and the imperative of solid research. Remember: scrutinize media interpretations and remain anchored in the essence of education amidst the intricate landscape of assessment. @TNHopfenbeck

Absolutely thrilled to be a mentor as a UniMelb alumni! Six years ago, when I first came to @UniMelb @EduMelb as a lonely international student, I wish I had a mentor to show me around. It was such a wonderful program @unimelbalumni !
