Be careful what you say on social media and online. It is a permanent record. Even the most innocent comments can hurt you. #satchatwc

Love #CSforAll, yet schools struggle to add #CompSciEd courses. @NoodleMarkets will help educators find options: turnkey courses, PD, more.

@shyj That is true, but #digcit is not always a black and white thing. People get offended by just about anything these days #satchatwc
