ATM fee now 250bt
I still don't understand why people are using their home country bank card in Thailand. It's so expensive 😫. It's easier and cheaper to open a Thai bank account. And that helps with your visa! What am I missing? -

Report Sunburn Nightmare: British Teen’s Thailand Trip Derailed by Sun
"I used sunbeds before coming here, thinking I'd be fine. This has completely changed my approach to sun safety." It used to be a common misconception that a "base tan" from a sunbed would stop you burning but that was debunked many years ago. There aren't really any "hidden dangers" in sun exposure. Not wearing sun block has been a no-no for decades. -

Learning Unit Module 6/7
I'm going to put some notes in here to help others who might do these modules in the future. Just started Module 6 today. There was an "Orientation" at 4pm on Zoom. From the sounds it's very important that everyone attends any group conference call. Looks like there's a 2h "homeroom" time each week when everyone needs to be online. These were initially assigned to fixed dates, but in our homeroom session afterwards we asked the teacher if we could change the dates (Some people had other module homeroom sessions on the same days, others had special class etc), and the homeroom teacher agreed. Also the homeroom teacher said that they thought the homeroom sessions would likely only take about 20mins, despite being assigned as 2h. However, we had to "check in" at the start of the assigned time for the orientation, and then "check out" shortly after the end of the assigned time for the orientation, despite finishing 30+ mins before we were meant to, due to something in the system. Checking in / out was essentially just logging into module 6 via the ONE app and then clicking green buttons to proceed, not difficult or complicated despite having no idea about how all this works. I think it was mentioned that there are 72x videos which students need to watch, but I might have misheard. You can start viewing the videos straight away, some of the guys who had done other modules were already upto 10 or 15 videos watched by the time we started the orientation. From what I gather you have to play them completely, and then even maybe go back to re-watch the final 1 minute of the video to get it to count as ticked off. They suggested it's important to get these watched early, incase you don't have time later on, and I assume you can always go back to re-watch them if you need to know the content. Looks like applicants need to score 60%+ to pass, and there will be 4x assignments which must be completed (in addition to attending homeroom meetings + watching videos online) as well as a 2 day seminar at the end of the course, and an exam. Breakdown of how your grade is calculated is: 30% seminars 30% assignments 30% exam 10% attendance With watching the videos being part of these too (I can't remember which part though). Assignments are along the lines of below: 1 - Look at your school's educational quality framework (Thai document you can get from the school), and then say what it is and whether it's appropriate for your school + why. 2 - Explain the process of your school to ensure that the educational quality standard of your school plan is met. Then explain how you, as a teacher, can act or do as a teacher to ensure that school standards are being met. You've then got to show them how you would do this, and how you would assess success etc. 3 - Review the results of the school's latest school assessment report and analyze the strengths and weaknesses of your school, and provide recommendations for improvement. Then state how you as a teacher could do to improve the quality of your school. 4 - Write about your learning experiences that reveal your understanding of the quality of educational quality assurance, designing and implementing educational assurance in schools & the use of evidence and evaluation results for educational improvement. Also registration for the next 7 modules will apparently open in October, as one of the people in the class had asked Krusapa and that's what they said (But didn't give a specific date). One thing which seemed to be a common theme from those who have done other modules already, was that it can be a lot of work if you signup to a lot of different modules which overlap. Some people had 3+ modules which were overlapping, because they were doing 4, 5 & 6, and although the start dates are staggered, they overlap. Anyway, that's my experience so far. Figured I'd post up so that others could benefit from the knowledge. -

USA UPenn ban trans athletes after probe involving swimmer Lia Thomas
No one is harmed in this decision, and it is fair to everyone involved. Transgender men and women will both still be allowed to compete. Transgender athletes will absolutely be allowed to participate in men's sports. Transgender athletes will absolutely be allowed to participate in women's sports. -
