To inspire the teachers of tomorrow, she speaks at schools of education including DePaul and Bowling Green State University. Adora advocates for education innovation around the world. A prolific writer on education and related technology, Adora has written for EdTech Magazine. She is a prodigious blogger, posting on 21st-century learning at The Educators' Royal Treatment, a blog dedicated to education. She was nominated in 2009 for the Edublogs Student Blog Award. Adora's books include; Flying Fingers, an engaging how-to hand book on writing for parents and kids from a student's point of view; Dancing Fingers, a collection of poetry she co-authored with her sister Adrianna; and Yang in Disguise, a coming-of-age fantasy novel with undertones of political satire. At ideaCity10, Adora discusses the old saying "Let Kids Be Kids" and what it really means (or shouldn't).

Natalie is a Digital Media student who makes short videos on the side. Her videos have attracted more than 213,000,000 hits with approximately 600,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel, making her the most subscribed and watched Australian on YouTube and one of the top 20 globally. Tran was one of the Australian YouTube celebrities invited to talk about the site at the launch of YouTube Australia in 2007. Her videos are short satirical skits revolving around everyday observations. Natalie's videos tend to feature her playing multiple characters while mulling over a topic such as how joggers always find dead bodies and whether jogging at night can help reduce this possibility.
