Closer look at school closures and NAEP data, finding limited correlation (I'm surprised). There is a lot we don't know about what happened in schools during the pandemic, and a lot we don't know about what the effects will be.

Very exciting (for all of us!) Congrats!

There is still time to join us for Math + Quilting: A Maker Bootcamp, a workshop series for K-5 & 6-8 math educators @LesleySTEAM @Lesley_U and facilitated by @nettib, @RashmiPi, and me 😆. These workshops are in-person & virtually. For more details, go to https://t.co/UZYw7UsxDU

@pixelmoth @scratch @makeymakey ah - you are too kind! I think you were often the source of our creative work in the field!

In 2022 my digital art has been on view at the Smithsonian, Carnegie Hall, the Umbrella Arts Center (MA), and now Lincoln Center (today). At least one of my pieces is in a permanent collection at the Smithsonian.

Leah Buechley kind of predicted it in her Forward for my book.

[Sue Cusack @SueCusack]

Nicely done Luke! The field is all the better for having you has an ITS (one of the few with this new license) Bravo!

[Luke Walton @LWalton_TechEd]

This morning I officially received my Instructional Technology Specialist license. I once thought I was stuck doing something I didn't enjoy- turns out you're never really stuck. Thank you to everyone who helped me on this path! @bmaurao @SueCusack

"Using a site called Culturally Situated Design Tools, Nellum shifted his curriculum to include coding the curves of Adinkra symbols created by the Ashanti people... He’s seen growth in his students’ confidence in STEM subjects..." https://t.co/PL2GSu5v10 #cs4all #antiracism

There is STEM. There is STEAM. And then there are the students designing homeostatic control for the African Futurist Greenhouse while the Nkisi keep watch. More at https://t.co/rqOEOvXlFF.

Far too many Americans fear and hate math. Sadly, this is often related to the way they were taught math in school. Stanford professor @joboaler is one of the authors of a new California Mathematics Framework which is addressing this problem. I support this effort.

Wonderful to see this portrait of Bob Moses created by @nettieb and used as a backdrop by Dr. Janet Moses as she introduced Dr. Cornel West for closing remarks at the Bob Moses Conference - what a powerful event and catalyst for action and engagement.

[Sue Cusack @SueCusack]

Very excited to see my colleague, @nettieb included in a conference commemorating the work of Bob Moses, and joining civil rights & education activists to focus on ensuring educational opportunities to support engaged citizenship for black youth in a 21st century.

[Nettrice @nettieb]

I was asked to lead a discussion about artivism today at the Bob Moses convening. I was unsure of the time and thought no one showed up but I was early. Over 30 people joined, including my supervisor.

Tomorrow, I'll lead a discussion about AI and Black consciousness.

[Jacqueline Woodson @JackieWoodson]

Because it needs to be repeated.

[Lesley Steam @LesleySTEAM]

Powerful convening of civil rights & ed advocates upholding Bob Moses' work https://t.co/UCzPs8jfk3
focusing on providing "children at the bottom w/ an education required for membership in our 21st-century hi-tech society" Proud of @nettieb discussing artivism, AI & Afrofuturism
