Must read: “...learning to code often results in people believing that computing can do anything, that computing is only technical and not social, that it’s algorithms that are powerful, not data, and that diversity is a matter of error handling rather than justice.” #CSforALL – at Manhattan, NY
Just finished my #Koli2019 keynote, "21st Grand Challenges for Computing Education," which links CS education to climate change, democracy, diversity. Here's my blog post for a summary, links to a rehearsal video, the recorded talk, and slides. medium.com/bits-and-behavior…

Yes! @CSforALL @cs4allpr @exploringcs @mobilecsp @ECEP_CS @ecs4pr @iqbioreu are making the difference in the schools and universities of Puerto Rico to improve these numbers, also!
Young women and students of color are breaking records in computer science! The gender gap in high school CS continues to shrink, 6 years in a row, and there are so many people to thank! 🖥💪🎉 buff.ly/2MSyfKO

Hands down, a good week. Computer science instructor Jill Hubbard and her @CSforOregon partners put a $1M @NSF grant to good use helping high school teachers bring equity to computer science education. #CSforOregon #OSUcascades #BendBeavs beav.es/ZPX

Do you know any K-12 CS educators who are committed to improving equitable access and achievement in computer science?
Is it you?
If so, apply for CSTA’s Equity Fellowship, made possible in partnership with @Microsoft and @pluralsight

On day 2 of @CSforOregon's #ExploringComputerScience PD, we talked about the barriers to equitable access. How can we make our CS classrooms reflect the diversity of our neighborhoods? @CSforOregon @jillhubbard @dyanekCS @OSUcascades @uoeducation @MCECSpdx @NSF_CISE @CSforALL
