I'm posting my #sigcse2024 quotes, images, and thougths in the fediverse - look for me on hachyderm

Hi everyone at #sigcse2023. I'm sharing things on hacky derm dot io (I'm sure you can find me there) 😉

[Russell Feldhausen @russfeld]

Hi Twitterverse! I'm testing @PlausibleHQ's Analytics. It should pick up on Tweets (I think)... so, uh, go read my blog or something? :^) https://t.co/9Hi3GtcNY4

@KSU_WebDevClub Anyone still have access to this Twitter account? If so, let me know so we can pass it on to the new officers :)

Something to check out after #sigcse2020: https://t.co/qfdMfV9UsX Teaching quantum today may be like teaching parallelism was years ago.

With all the discussion about how we can move classes online because of #COVID19, I think we need a hashtag to help organize and share. I humbly propose #cseducationonline - maybe folks at #SIGCSE2020 can help give it a boost. Got a resource to share? #cseducation #onlinelearning

It's about time for me to come out of Twitter hibernation for #SIGCSE2020. Prepare to be bombarded with random stuff from the world of computer science education #csed

[K-State Computer Science @kstate_CS]

We are proud to announce that we now offer a Computer Science Undergraduate Certificate! This certificate allows those in non-engineering degrees to still obtain computer science skills that are becoming high in demand.

@guzdial @russfeld This is one of the reasons some of us are so passionate about K-5 CS work -- in the classroom, often integrated w/ other subjects.
We need to #startsooner to reach everyone, hopefully before they internalize the stereotypes that contribute to them being potentially "scared off."

[Diane Levitt @diane_levitt]

@CisforCarla @guzdial @russfeld How do they know they’re interested if they are never introduced to the material? Not by the name. Not by media images of technologists. Not necessarily by teacher recommendation. Only if we put it in front of every kid regardless of interest. #CSforALL

[Dr. Marlo Barnett @marlobarnett]

@diane_levitt @CisforCarla @guzdial @russfeld #CS should be required as a core subject just like Reading, Math, SS, and Science. R all Ss interested in getting a job in those subjects? No, but they provide a gateway 2inspire and provoke their passion towards any career. #CS should provide the same opportunity for all #K12 Ss

[Russell Feldhausen @russfeld]

@runfast2718r Quality assessment is also key - "tick the box" vs. "Have you mastered the topic" sort of thing - we had a long discussion about this at our workshop this afternoon

[Russell Feldhausen @russfeld]

Provocative question (too big for a tweet) - do we focus teaching CS topics in K-12 to those who show interest (and avoid scaring those who don't) or do we treat it like math and language arts, where it is a life skill that everyone needs, possibly scaring many (see: math)?

[Russell Feldhausen @russfeld]

@runfast2718r Yup. That's the idea. Think of CS (more generally, computational thinking) a bit more like math and reading/writing in the K-12 space - it is a life skill practiced in all fields and subjects.

[Russell Feldhausen @russfeld]

@guzdial This is the response our community needs to hear and take to heart. #letsTeachCSBetter is a great mantra for our future work. #SIGCSE2019

[Russell Feldhausen @russfeld]

Great talk by @fsgeek at #SIGCSE2019 - I'm interested to try his approach to reducing plagiarism in online courses. (I'll follow with a paper link soonish)
