@theaieducatorX 1. Quick! Draw!
2. https://t.co/ogLJYsvKBY
3. Can use it in the classroom with under 13s. Really visual, easy-to-use example of an ML model and understanding training data. And it's so creative!

And this "In relation to a given example of a digital technology (real or hypothetical), be able to provide a reasoned evaluation of what impacts and issues it may be expected to have on individuals, wider society, the economy, and the environment."

DfE proposed changes to the CS curriculum https://t.co/ujWRnsqRcY
👍 to this: "The broader impacts that digital technology (including artificial intelligence) can have on individuals, wider society, the economy and the environment, including issues of ethics, legality, bias."

Great to see @AppsforGood on the list. The digital economy desperately needs to become more diverse and inclusive beginning with a broad range of young people opting to study Computing at GCSE. #DiversityInTech

[Emma Posey @emmaposey]

Loving the mug @FlipComputing. It's perfect. Will using it improve my programming skills and ability to educate?🫖

[Emma Posey @emmaposey]

Young people need to experience machine learning under guidance. The 13+ age limit of GenAI tools hinders this at KS3 as does the current level of teacher confidence. But these things will surely change over time?

[Rachel Arthur @rarthurtweets]

Listening to the black box podcast from @guardian and it’s making me think a lot about AI and safeguarding in schools, we have a responsibility to teach e saftey and there’s project evolve. But how many schools have time to deliver this ? And the expertise to do it properly ?

[Emma Posey @emmaposey]

An amazing opportunity to undertake much-needed work :)

[Emma Posey @emmaposey]

@rarthurtweets superbly leading educator session on girls in computing for @TeachFirst this morning. Currently discussing the options process as one barrier – there are quiet a few. @AppsforGood courses referred to as a great way to engage girls and develop digital skills😀

Wish we were a part of this...

@suesentance @DdR333 @microbit_edu @Cambridge_CL @RaspberryPi_org The registration seems to indicate you need to be a teacher to attend? Is this so?

[Emma Posey @emmaposey]

Made a birthday app for my son with @codeorg's App Lab. Easy-peasy and really engaging for young people to see content in app-form 🙌
Thanks go to Ross Exton https://t.co/xvuEpl8SJ3 for your film production prowess with Watch and Learn Productions📽️ :)

[AppsforGood @AppsforGood]

Take a look at just how easy it is to teach an Apps for Good computing course by using @codeorg's App Lab to design and build your students' apps 📱💻
