Getting more girls into tech is so important to us. That's why we were so keen to work with @InfyFoundation on an inspiring #InternationalDayOfTheGirl design thinking & coding workshop in NYC. The girls prototyped solutions that work towards the UN #GlobalGoals

I got to see a tardigrade in a microscope today and I thought you would enjoy seeing it too. Thank you Dominique M, science teacher at @CCCfortcollins for giving the kids and me the opportunity!!

Project-based learning is so rewarding and rich. We're 4 years into the process at @CCCfortcollins and are definitely starting to get the hang of it. Would love to chat more #pbl especially with tech and science teachers, so please reach out if you want to share ideas.

Thank you to @DuPriestMath for making these opportunities possible and for @OtterCares for being such a generous supporter of hard working and creative students!
Raquel and Nathan spent weeks writing a grant as a venture project - gathering info, making a budget, writing, and endless editing. Last week they were awarded $10,000 from @OtterCares for their Innovation Station grant! Congratulations! @CCCfortcollins

The @CCCfortcollins students in our AI/VR venture went to CSU for a presentation and tour led by Prof. Ortega and the grad students. We really enjoyed seeing your research and learning about CS at Colorado State. Thank you! @ColoradoStateU
So grateful to all the coaches who make this level of engagement possible! #CCSFortCollins#findyourgenius#homeschool#lovetolearn#education#educationmatters#deeperlearning#learningbydoing#stemeducation#stem#futureleaders#thefutureisbright#thefutureisnow
