Here is our Education Technology Inquiry Project! Let me know your thoughts below! Pro’s and Con’s of Technology in PHE Technology is increasingly present in schools, including in Physical and Health Education (PHE). Because PHE is rooted in movement and embodied learning, educators must think carefully about how technology is used. The key question is…
This week I did not get as far along in my Vibe coding as I felt was crucial enough to share; however, I did want to share my HTML and JavaScript game that I made for a coding class in university. I know the skills are different, but the idea of creating a game in…
This week I started to see some real progress with my juggling. In the video I included, I was able to get 10 juggles in a row with the juggling balls, which felt like a big milestone compared to where I started. It is still far from smooth, but it finally feels like I am…
This week I added two videos to track where I am at with juggling, and it was honestly a bit humbling to watch them back. But I am glad I have them up on the blog so that hopefully I can inspire others to get out there and express themselves with something new. Try brushing…

We talked about a mix of things like privacy, environmental impacts, and how AI might realistically be used…
For my free inquiry project, I’m continuing to work on learning how to juggle, and this week felt like a small but important breakthrough. I was starting to get pretty frustrated using balls because everything felt rushed and out of control. A friend suggested I try using scarves or even plastic bags, since they float…
Our in-person field trip to PSII (Pacific School of Innovation and Inquiry) was a highlight of the course for me. I really enjoyed seeing a learning environment that looks and feels so different from traditional schools, especially one that clearly prioritizes student choice and curiosity. One space that stood out was the stim room, which…
For my weekly free inquiry, I decided to start learning how to juggle. Juggling is a skill I’ve always found interesting but never taken the time to properly learn, and it feels like a good mix of coordination and patience. Juggling works well with the idea of the free inquiry project, as it’s a long-term…
Photo by Growtika on Unsplash GenAI has a lot of potential, but it also has clear limits. It can give made-up information or miss context. It will sound confident even when it is incorrect. It also cannot replace real thinking and movement, which makes me feel a lot less stressed for teaching PHE in the…
