Perhaps the greatest anti-slavery speech ever uttered is “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July,” by Frederick Douglass, in 1852. I wanted to make the speech more accessible. Here’s a thread with an abridged version of the speech we should reread every #FourthofJuly. 1/

Tomorrow is the start of “Teacher Appreciation Week,” so take 5 minutes to:
1. Think of teachers who changed your life.
2. Find their email, phone number or Facebook page.
3. Write them a letter, a note, call them… instagram.com/p/BxFqVLJBugb/…

As a GWC alum, it’s really disheartening to see that @60Minutes didn’t give credit to any WOMEN-led orgs like @GirlsWhoCode or @BlackGirlsCode on a segment about closing the GENDER gap in tech. Read @reshmasaujani’s response here on medium bit.ly/2XE9tQq

"The role of the teacher is to create the conditions for invention rather than provide ready-made knowledge." Seymour Papert, whose birthday is on February 29, inspired many with his views on education. Learn more about his work from @mres: bit.ly/2HSUjmJ #LEGOlearning

Kenton Stacy, a Navy EOD tech, was nearly killed in a blast while clearing a hospital of IEDs in Raqqa, Syria last November. He underwent 13 surgeries in the first 43 hours and was given 40+ pints of blood. He’s now a quadriplegic. wtkr.com/2018/11/21/father-o…

Interested in strategies for cultivating creativity? Check out the @Freakonomics podcast "Where Does Creativity Come From (and Why Do Schools Kill It Off)?" freakonomics.com/podcast/cre…
Why schools don’t produce creative thinkers: “What we need to do is to focus more on trying to assess the things we value, rather than valuing the things that are most easily assessed.” — @mres. bit.ly/2RdTpBg

#WednesdayWisdom from Seymour Papert: "The role of the teacher is to create the conditions for invention rather than provide ready-made knowledge." What does this quote inspire for you and your #CreativeComputing classroom?

“We need to celebrate women physicists because they’re out there… I’m honoured to be one of those women," says Donna Strickland.
She becomes the third woman to receive the #NobelPrize in Physics, joining Maria Goeppert-Mayer (1963) and Marie Curie (1903). Congratulations!
