@kirstenruewrite @UX_EdTech +1 Thank you @UX_EdTech so much for bringing this group together, always love our conversations!

Thanks to folks for joining and feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn to talk further about roles in EdTech! 🦄 ✨

[bridget @bridgetweis]

@UX_EdTech As you can see from the variety of folks on our team, there is no one path into the EdTech space. I highly recommend thinking on what skills you want to bring to EdTech, then reaching out to folks 1:1 with jobs you might want—get their advice and build connections.

@CodySkinnerFan Yes. Trans women are women.

There is no place for hate and racism in our society. Empathy and shared understanding are a start, but we must do more. I stand with the Black and African American community and we are committed to building on this work in our company and in our communities.

Can't wait to hear what kids of the future will say about our 'archaic' metaphors 😂 reminds me of when my class learned about origin of a type lockup. Minds = 🤯
