@scratch @AliaDahl_FCPS Hello @scratch ! I'm having the same problem with some of the accounts - is there some work-around to get the direct links to projects that aren't published?

I've made a map for my display for the Level Up Calgary: Season 3... Feel free to use it! My hope is that it will help kids realize that this is based off real places... #wearecbe #yycbe

@AutodeskEDU I'm trying to make my education account, but I get an error in response: MISMATCH_PERSON_FIRST_NAME. I've changed my account to Michael from Mike, but I still get this error. Who do I contact to help me out?

Hey @NickDiGiovanni - Thanks for getting my son into cooking… He bought your cookbook with his birthday money and adapted a recipe for a celiac (me) - best cookie I’ve ever had!

My teaching team purchased boxes of Dixon No. 2 pencils from @grandandtoyca . Each pencil is filled with broken lead and cannot be sharpened by students. Is this a shipping issue or a manufacturing issue?

I'm doing a Minecraft Build Battle with a focus on the structures of Ancient Athens ... Research, write, build. Any other #grade6 classes out there interested? We could have our classes evaluate each-other's builds! @abed, @blaistech https://t.co/rRb4MqMKkG
