Check out our work on developing #computationalthinking skills & dispositions in culturally responsive #makerspaces that highlight physics & engineering content #STEMvideohall videohall.com/p/1297

Check out our presentation on "Using Visual Strategies for Supporting #ComputationalThinking in Physics Learning" on Saturday! twitter.com/CCAS_NEIU/stat…

@rhadad discusses our papers, posters and what we learned at #AERA18 actmaproject.wordpress.com/2018/04/23/aer…

Check out our new blog post from Kate! She recently presented at the @SIGCSE_TS Conference in Baltimore. #SIGCSE2018 #SIGCSE #CS4All #CT #computationalthinking #culture @CCAS_NEIU @UIC_CollegeofEd actmaproject.wordpress.com/2018/04/04/sig…

Big ol’ crew to watch @rhadad for her @NSF #webinar today around #computationalthinking, #making, and #culture. @ActmaProject @CCAS_STEM @CCAS_NEIU @ChicagoGEARUP @TERC_MSPnet

Have you registered for our upcoming webinar? There's still time but limited spots so get on it! twitter.com/terc_mspnet/st… twitter.com/terc_mspnet/st…

Join our PI @rhadad next Wednesday for her webinar--#Cultural, #Cognitive, #Experiential, and #Attitudinal Influences on #ComputationalThinking Development. Register at link below! @NSF @NSF_CISE @CCAS_NEIU @CCAS_STEM @ChicagoGEARUP @NEIU hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/webi…

Come visit our poster station (892) to talk to Kate about how we embedded #culturalresponsiveness into our #maker #ComputationalThinking #physics activities! #SIGCSE2018 #SIGCSE @NSF @NSF @CCAS_NEIU @UIC_CollegeofEd

@MrsCorriganGE @GEDSB @GEDSB21C This reminds me of the @Ozobot! Which do you think it more bang for your buck??

Are you looking for ways to assess #ComputationalThinking fluency? Check out pages 141-145 in this guide scratched.gse.harvard.edu/guide/ The guide has a focus on @scratch but can be applied to many different tools. #csfoall #csinall #mncodes Thank you @mres Wendy, and Bill!

New blog post about where we are currently at with our project. Lots of #coding! #computationalthinking #CT #CS4All #make #makerspace #maker @NSF @NSF_CISE actmaproject.wordpress.com/2018/02/13/cod…

Make sure to sign up for our #free #documentary night at the #CenterSpace next Tuesday night! Register here: centerspace.c4cas.org #PD #professionaldevelopment #BlackHistoryMonth #CPDUs #CPDU @ChicagoGEARUP @ChiPubSchools @chipublib @pbsteachers @PBS @wttw

Thanks, @JameelaJafri! We did activities around data on my day, all about me, and asset mapping to bring interest and community needs into Ss final projects during our summer academy. twitter.com/jameelajafri/s…

How can you use interactive notebooks in your #STEM classrooms? @ChiPubSchools @NSTA @CCAS_STEM @CCAS_NEIU #NSTA17 @UWStout @ActmaProject #engineering #DesignThinking

4 min countdown until our @NSTA session in Hyatt Lakeshore C! Yue is ready for y'all! @UIC_CollegeofEd @CCAS_NEIU @CCAS_STEM #NSTA17 #NSTA #makers #physics #computationalthinking

Who will we see at our 11am session on #computationalthinking, #making, #physics, and #formative #assessment?! Come to Hyatt Lakeshore C @NSTA #NSTA17 #NSTA #make #makerspace #maker

Data science, computational thinking & ability to deal with ambiguity are key skills for the next generation. @snknr #InclusiveSmartCities

@rhadad @cmeghausman We talked about doing it as an icebreaker BUT I needed all the supplies and it seemed way too involved for 1 day 😬

How would you teach someone to play tic-tac-toe? #gamedesign #computationalthinking #algorithmdesign @CCAS_NEIU @GameChangerChi @rhadad
