A.4 - diversity starts w/helping all schools successfully implement , which includes lots of PD & collaboration
Well, was born from me mis-reading a tweet last week…
A4 Recruit any S who likes gaming. Use that as a hook to get them engaged
A4 Talk with people outside of the classroom for ideas/problems to solve.
Thanks for joining us tonight, Mark! Have a great week.
A4 - By exposing all students at an early age to STEM skills, even if the teacher isn't an expert. Find ways!
A4. All stakeholders need to be involved/imformed, but more importantly empowered
A4 Start small. Build on the successes has had with
A4 Our school already is. Mainstreamed Sped, mod to severe all are eligible to take coding classes.
Late. Chris from SoCal. This is what happens when Amazon released next season of Missed most of Gonna check the feed

A4. Besides having kickass STEAM pgms in all schools, exploding boundaries of content areas, and focus on "solving problems" ...
Whenever my S's present, like at SPS, I make sure that half of them are girls
A4 Can coding be presented as a second language?
what about the pigs in a blanket ones for early morning pd?
. I do coding with a lot of my mod/severe kiddos--some programs are great for ss with good vis. reasoning, poor lang
My TK students also love these on :)
A4- start young. It should be taught yearly like other important subjects
I love that phrase, "exploding boundaries" - thank you! https://t.co/DbDTwTBc8G

Exactly! "Educational leadership" programs are all aimed at making you an admin--as it that's the only way to lead!
A4- exposure, exposure, exposure. We all need a chance to fail & try again. Buddy classes are great older kids can be mentors too.
great reminder about diversifying definitions of diversity!
A4: Balance STEM w/ advocacy for social sciences as well. Need historians, geographers, economists too. Have u watched a debate?
A4: my STEM class is 75% female & 2/4 Olympiad teams were all girks; the girls want to do it, they just need to know its available
Good idea.. regarding coding, lead with questions rather than statements (pun intended)
A4 Right now I'm focused on encouraging the girls in my 6th grade coding class. They outnumber the boys! Some of them LOVE coding!
Q5 What’s the next step for your Ss after ? How far beyond an hour can you go? - inspired by

That sounds like a lot of fun!!
Proud to be a part of . I can't wait to start learning more about how to intro coding curriclum k12
A5- trying to do some robotics for students to start building more skills
And they’re so lucky to have you as their teacher!
A5) Look to provide students with more choices including that to Code! Some do so during rainy day recesses
Perhaps a club?
A5 I think just looking at cs as a catch all is too limiting - need more options for students on and off computers -or am i wrong?
A5. I know next to nothing about coding, but I believe that coding should supplant Algebra 2 as a HS grad req.
A5:Started coding lunch clubs using Demoing lessons on using Scratch to present learning
A5 Hour of code should be a gateway to getting Ss imvolved. Projects, mentoring and application should be next steps
A5: Look for ways to highlight logical thinking and problem solving in all subjects/lessons

Our teachers started this and I've been watching in build momentum. Great model. .
A5: Plan on developing more coding resources for educators, such as online courses. Also, trying out and promoting free tools!
I saw that as well at . Very impressed by his story and products!
A5: inspired my Ts to begin the CSfirst lessons in 4th, 5th, and 6th grade classes! The Ss LOVE it!
I'd love even more to see CS & all integrated into K-5 classrooms rather than be separate subject
A5: we did Google CS First, Ss loved it, also doing Spheros & Lego Robotics; the more exposure Ss get the better
I like the way you think.
And then ANOTHER Secretary accused me of possible "terrorism".Honestly🙄.📝a Language Acquisition THEORY + marketing Consulting+Art.
A6: NEVER discourage curiosity. INSPIRE daily. Treat them like family.
I have a few iographer kits and mics - really fantastic products. My Ss love using them!

planning a TK-8 coding sequence beebot to arduino any models?
Agreed! The ground floor is caring and understanding. Then they might be ready to learn. That's my story as a kid.
A6) I will look to inspire children to help find and explore their passions. I won't take no for an answer.
A3: Remind myself and others to show the joy we have in our jobs. Love the energy of our students and should share that w/them

A2 I'll be tweeting up a storm, encouraging more Ts to get on Twitter, add to my website and crank up my email game
I can probably guess a couple of the teacher's names. I found a binder of Mr. Hansen's art lesson plans from 1984.
I meant CYA as a metaphor for S's designing their own projects
I agree... It's what makes chats so interesting
