One of the report's significant points: how to consider "authenticity" in learning & computing, making a distinction between "professionally authentic" & "personally authentic" -- authentic to whom, to what cultures. https://t.co/uuIRrUF4zu #computing #STEM #csed #makered

The National Academies report on authentic experiences to support pursuit of computing is now out! I got to work for many months with some amazing colleagues to write this report. Too many to tag, perhaps they will RT? #csed ⁦@theNASEM⁩ https://t.co/3M8XTSlSRz

While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.

A1 it’s hard to escape imposter syndrome because of conditioning to see our successes as being a fluke — for me it was hashing it out w other women and as a supt going after a balanced leadership team that was not male dominant #WomenEdLeaders

The goal of the first CS course should be to promote confidence if we’re going to increase diversity in CS: Paying off on a bet https://t.co/VVSj0b1crz

University teachers: What's the goal of your teaching? To develop students to their potential and facilitate their learning of your domain? Or to identify top students through rigorous evaluation, push them to advance the field? 1/2

How did studying historical disruptions and using it is a jumping off point for making help @presidioknolls students process living in COVID? Lots of powerful reflections. #MakerEdConvening

[Paula Mitchell @Mitchellteach87]

@JaleesaT speaking on Black makers at the #MakerEdConvening addresses the politics of #play for Black children.
What does it look like to have spaces at school where it’s safe for Black children to be creative & joyful? How can we, educators, shift how we do
