The CS Map by @digitalyouth and computer science and #stem providers suggests it would and could be possible. chicagocityoflearning.org/cs-map How does one compare the train-the-teacher approach to the use of the existing programs that have to be certified?

Got a chance to geek out with some game design with @digitalyouth at #MetaMediaFoster

What an amazing week of hacking for the #HourofCode. Our top challenge was @codeorg's Dance Party. Over 2000 chicagoland students created their own dance by programming it. @cs4allcps @ExploreChi

Who else is excited for #CSEdWeek (starts tomorrow!)? Will you be participating in an #hourofcode?

#CSEdWeek starts tomorrow. Last year our Chicago top three coding activities were Flappy Code (@codeorg), Animate Your Name & Create Your Own Google Logo (#CSFirst). What challenges will Chicago tackle this year? #HourOfCode @ExploreChi @cs4allcps chicagocodes.org

107k learners across Chicago rate music as a priority interest. Next week for #CSEdWeek we will highlight online activities that combine the worlds of Python #coding and music creation. @ExploreChi #HourOfCode

The last two years, our learning platform has powered #CSEdWeek events to help introduce kids of all ages to coding, tinkering, computer science. Each time nearly 40000 learners and educators have hacked their way to new computer science levels. Are you ready for #HourOfCode?

Congrats @npinkard and @OCEP_NU! It's a great opportunity to understand and amplify how out of school time learning contributes to closing the achievement gap. #edtech #equity

Poor feedback, ineffective guidance and instructions, and lack of adaptivity are some of the key shortcomings identified by researchers in a study of popular mobile learning apps for preschoolers. #edtech #K12 blogs.edweek.org/edweek/Digital…
