As a last assignment in CSP, CSA and Media Comp with Python I’m having students create their own CS related meme and write about it. I have been laughing at the memes all day!

Remember that if you are teaching the same content for the 10th year straight, it will be the very first time for your students. Infuse your classroom with wonder. If you share your excitement and importance for your content, students will soar. @EverettMASchool @CSforAllTchrs

Also, preemptively: Equitable student access to AND participation in #K12 #ComputerScience #Education is NOT “just another unfunded mandate” adopted by “Springfield”. It is THE educational equity issue of this age. @ISBEnews @IllinoisASA @GovPritzker #iledchat #edchat #twill
In Illinois, school & district admin need to be thinking **now** about preparing for AY ‘23-‘24, when - by statute - all high schools statewide will be expected to offer a #ComputerScience course. @ISBEnews @IllinoisASA @GovPritzker #iledchat #edchat #twill
