My students are getting a "Connection Error" for the 2nd day in a row when trying to Start a Simulation. It says "Unable to contact the code compilation service. Please try again later or contact us if the problem persists." #Tinkercad

@Tinkercad My students are getting a connection error when they try to run programs inside Tinkercad.

Over the last year I've worked hard on an Intro to Arduino course: Build and Program Games with Arduino. Take a look. If you want me to create an account for you, just let me know. #Tinkercad

@tinkercad Tinkercad had been down for over an hour now. Are you guys doing routine maintenance? Any idea when it will be up?

[Michael Backus @akrobotnerd]

@melton3d @tinkercad Yeah. It's been working well since I sent that. Do you have multiple servers assigned to different accounts? Every once in a while a particular student cannot compile while most others can?

@tinkercad

Tinkercad worked great for me yesterday and the day before, but I keep getting the following:

Connection Error
Unable to contact the code compilation service.
Please try again later or contact us if the problem persists.

@senatordavidwilson #AKLEG #BSA100 As a parent and an educator I am concerned about how big classes are getting in the valley. Investing in our children has a long term impact on our economy that more than pays for itself. Plus, it's the right thing to do. Please pass HB 339.

@scientiffic I saw your post on adding any Arduino library to Tinkercad circuits. Can you make it easier (like in the Arduino IDE). I teach middle school and want to use the PinChangeInterrupt library with my students.

@AnnaUttereyuk You have to constantly search for #astechat and include that in all your posts so everyone else can see them.

@elmoami https://t.co/F4EkioBuzn and Khan Academy are great places to start. Then pick up an Arduino. @astechat

@elmoami What is Zoom? Can you provide a link? #astechat

@MattGore00 Thinking about 3D printing VR/AR gear (like Google Cardboard) to go with my Kindles. They'll be big and clunky but should work.

Looking for ways to share what I know about automating grading and closing the loop on feedback. https://t.co/uaSNmEL3As #astechat
