I don’t have cross posting set up but sharing updates on #jsconf here: https://t.co/QGN7rreemv
I’m getting weird errors when trying to post from the twitter app for some reason.

[Joel Dart @joeldart]

Here’s a list to bring you back. Also appreciate the trends callback to web quests

Name an old #edtech tool.

I'll start: Glogster.

let's try this again: read this new flash CNF by @MarkAbdonWrites which is awesome and deserves your eyes https://t.co/ug1TFOBZRm

Was a really fun coderdojo today. The kids “hacked” their school website with the web inspector. Updated…
- The schedule (more vacation)
- Images of staff members (more dogs
- Core values (more tacos)

Harness the power of thoughtful questions with this #BiteSizedPD from educator @mdroush:

Also, re the previous tweet, this was refreshing not only witnessing the bravery, but personally talking with school leaders again about more than troubleshooting, bug fixes, and workflows.

[Joel Dart @joeldart]

🔥 Had a great conversation with a public district who has left extension installs, etc all the way open on their chromebooks so kids can explore, tinker, and break stuff. Also working to increase kids’ access to explore ai. All this done safely and with accountability.

Also if this feels real basic, it is. That was a year and a half ago, and you should check out everything we’ve been working on since!

When Reveal first added the ability to bring in your edtech subscriptions so that you could see app cost vs app usage all right there, we told everyone, “We’ll accept any format you’ve got. No restriction.” But we had no takers 2/3

[Joel Dart @joeldart]

Come to find out: making the list was the job they needed help with! So we flipped it. Now you get all your usage info up front and you build your list from that. Start small. Build up value over time. Or when you get a list of 1500 apps all at once, we’re here too 3/3

[Joel Dart @joeldart]

Several school admins have been checking out Reveal because they’ve discovered from the google 3rd party deadline that they have 1500 apps to sort through and don’t know where to start. Let me emphasize that this is very very normal right now. 1/3

[Travis Flowers @meanderingleaf]

Super excited to say that my department is hiring a tenure-track researcher in XR. Come work in a hidden game in Indianapolis Indiana: https://t.co/lTz2fQ1YSo

[Joel Dart @joeldart]

Got a really solid mid-level #dotnet developer we had to let go. Hard worker. Does good work. Would rehire in a heartbeat. Also #angularjs experience. https://t.co/XJPmmmGuWk

[Mark Abdon @MarkAbdonWrites]

You always remember your “firsts”. Sure, the obvious ones. But also the first time you ran out of milk and substituted Coke on your cereal. Or the first time your short story appeared in print 👀

I don’t mean to brag, but I went 2 years refusing to update my app when they changed the default view from chronological. I had to click through to the web to see every tweet over 140 chars, yet I was not deterred.

[Dr Kate Compton @GalaxyKate]

I post a lot of neat creative coding projects
Would you want to learn to make your own?

@glumDumpst3r @reybango I have had two somewhat recent conversations with folks where their idea of tdd was to either write all the tests up front or all the tests at the end which is both difficult and tedious. Both found that the dev and testing work was better after clearing up that misconception
