Going to the 2023 Trendy conference I honestly wasn't expecting much. Frankly speaking, my expectations were spot on, bar a couple notable presentations.
The first was Kate Redkina with her talk about our perception of students. That we tend to pay more attention to the "good" students, give them more feedback, praise them more. Looking back I can say that I was guilty of that as well, but for a short while and not anymore. I am fortunate to work in an environment that makes it obvious that a "bad" English student can be amazing at a plethora of other subjects. And I've always been an advocate of underdogs having been one myself all of my school career, though it was not academically but rather communication-wise.
The second was by Elena Sarnavskaya who gave precise and very specific instructions on how to use Chat GPT. Very useful for some teachers, but given the size and detail of the prompt you need to write, it seems easier to me to write the text yourself.

Despite Telegram's origins, its approach to users' security has privacy advocates worried. These administrators had built substantial positions in these scrips prior to the circulation of recommendations and offloaded their positions subsequent to rise in price of these scrips, making significant profits at the expense of unsuspecting investors, Sebi noted. Groups are also not fully encrypted, end-to-end. This includes private groups. Private groups cannot be seen by other Telegram users, but Telegram itself can see the groups and all of the communications that you have in them. All of the same risks and warnings about channels can be applied to groups. The next bit isn’t clear, but Durov reportedly claimed that his resignation, dated March 21st, was an April Fools’ prank. TechCrunch implies that it was a matter of principle, but it’s hard to be clear on the wheres, whos and whys. Similarly, on April 17th, the Moscow Times quoted Durov as saying that he quit the company after being pressured to reveal account details about Ukrainians protesting the then-president Viktor Yanukovych. The picture was mixed overseas. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index fell 1.6%, under pressure from U.S. regulatory scrutiny on New York-listed Chinese companies. Stocks were more buoyant in Europe, where Frankfurt’s DAX surged 1.4%.
