If you are a CS educator and are wondering what #Strike4BlackLives and #ShutDownSTEM has to do with you, please read this: https://t.co/Gl2fDFVb8h. And then read as many of the articles it links to as you can. That's what I'll be doing today

A good book to help you learn the lived experience of your underprivileged students and gain new language to describe it is The Privileged Poor by @tony_jack

Please join SLIS for a Community Conversation on Wednesday, June 10th at 6 pm. The recent acts of racial violence & the COVID-19 pandemic have been dominating the news. It is a difficult time, & we recognize it may be especially triggering for people in communities affected.

#Covid19 has made clearer than ever that the web is not a luxury but a lifeline. Yet, over 3.5 billion people still can’t get online.

Governments and companies need to act now to make sure that everyone, everywhere can connect. 1/10

@Dominic__Noble It's "no math" because they don't want you to figure out the age gap implied by "my dad's best friend"

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

@virtuallyFine I appreciated the email you sent!

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

@Dublin_kshankar I'm so sorry to hear that

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

@skrishna I bet they get talked about a lot of the wizard version of r/raisedbynarcissists

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

@katiegoogling 😂😂 I haven't gotten any of those yet, but there's still time!

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

@katiegoogling There is no outdoors, there is only grading

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

Graduating students: I'm so sorry that you can't have a "real" commencement ceremony, but I am so impressed with how you have handled this situation. Take that grace and resiliency with you into your lives and you will do amazing things!

I'll miss you all!

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

@TheRhysma Maybe, but I worry that would be a lot slower

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

@ScotinaStats lol, I'll volunteer you to be the tutor then 😂

[Amber Stubbs @amber_stubbs]

Anyone have suggestions for a programming platform for a 4th grader who has done some Scratch and wants to build their own castle defense game? I don't know a lot about programming options for kids
