The Future of Education is a topic often discussed, and at the recent gathering of educators in Florence, it was the title and theme for the conference. Now in its ninth year, The Future of Education is an international conference that attracts educators from around the world and across all domains touched by education. The conference is an inspiring two days of discussion and sharing, with the city of Florence, the centre of the Renaissance, providing a constant reminder of what might be possible when creativity and critical thinking combine. Here are my key takeaways from this event.

Addison Adam on 03 Oct 19

Many people associate property management with the buying and selling of a type of property, which is completely wrong. The property management company works for your convenience, it takes care of your residential and commercial property and finding a good tenant. Performs all types of tasks related to the tenant, also bears the responsibility of maintaining your property. * Rent monitoring and rental cheque collection from tenant. * Depositing the cheque in to landlord's bank account. * Pay the property tax on behalf of landlord and send lease renewal reminder to landlord and tenant. * Solve all rent issues like advance rent, escalation in rent etc. * Handover or possession from existing lease.

The bushfire crisis that is currently impacting Australia is beyond devastating. The scale of these fires defies the imagination. For so long now we have lived with skies laden with smoke as a constant and inescapable reminder that this is not an ordinary summer. This is weather and drought at its most extreme. Our only salvation will be rain but this is not the season for that and the long term forecasts are not promising. Our young people, in particular, will be affected and will need special care in the weeks and months to come. What might this mean for schools and for student agency?

Encouragement is the act of giving someone support, confidence, or hope in pursuing a goal or dealing with a difficult situation. It can take the form of words, actions, or gestures that inspire and motivate someone to keep going, even in the face of adversity. Encouragement can also be a reminder to believe in oneself, keep a positive attitude, and trust in one's abilities. In short, Encouragement is a way to boost someone's morale and spirit.

I typed in "farce" and got definitons for cooking procedures as well as the literary definition. Who knew?? :)

In some culture they kiss each other on the cheek as a greeting. Ignorance towards body language, attitudes, and preferences may drive an eternal wedge between the tutor and tutee. This is a huge part of understanding cultural differences.
