Innovation and inequity typically go hand-in-hand unless there is intentionality to combat it, for example tech boom & it's impact on housing and growing homelessness via Ruha Benjamin at #CSTA2020

Loving my team dropping knowledge with Ruha Benjamin around racism and computer science. #CSTA2020 Cʜᴀʀɪᴛʏ Fʀᴇᴇᴍᴀɴ (she/her) @LuebkerMoll Michelle G. Lee @coast_shanti #CSTAEquityFellow #CSEquity

The team is all together now! Ruha Benjamin Cʜᴀʀɪᴛʏ Fʀᴇᴇᴍᴀɴ (she/her) @coast_shanti Michelle G. Lee @LuebkerMoll @ShanaVWhite Reflecting on how we can use #ComputerScience to combat racism. #CSTA2020 #CSTAEquityFellow This is the face of #CSEquity change!

"It's not inevitable that it is the way it is... these structures are the product of human decisions." says Ruha Benjamin at #CSTA2020.

Congratulations to SF public schools 's own William Warren on this prestigious honor. Your curriculum work and teaching with K-5 students is a core part of #CSinSF's program. We are so lucky to have you.

two days of learning at #CSTA2020. Thirukural talks about digging deepr. Water will flow from a well in the sand in proportion to the depth to which it is dug, and knowledge will flow from a man in proportion to his learning. ytamizh.com/thirukural/kur…

Thank you Jen, Michelle G. Lee, Jason Innes (KinderLab Robotics), and Hannah Boston (Kodable Education) for joining our virtual residency and for your insights about #inclusion and #careerdevelopment! Always a genuine highlight of the year to connect current students to the alumni family ❤️

Yes, I have to thank Dr. Tonikiaa Orange at UCLA and Shana V. White (previously @shanavwhite) for sharing that idea with me! After noticing, they would push for actively including the perspectives that aren’t in the room in the curriculum as the next step. #ECTVirtualResidency

"The bare minimum that we can do as human beings is to recognize and respect each other." - Make your students say this out loud. Demonstrate it in your classroom. 2 minutes into #CSTA's CRT workshop and Shana White and Michelle Lee are making mic drops. #CSTAEquityFellows

“A single lesson can’t just be delivered as written. It has to be delivered to reflect one’s relationships with students, considering not only their interests, but also their community values. To me, that’s the core of culturally responsive pedagogy.” ECT alum Michelle G. Lee 🙌🏽

Sometimes technology hurts people precisely because it *doesn't* work & sometimes it hurts people because it *does* work. Facial recognition is both. When it *doesn't* work, people get misidentified, locked out, etc. But even when it *does*, it's invasive & still unsafe.

Anyone read good articles about how white supremacy shows up in virtual classroom policies & procedures & how to dismantle it? I'm thinking the policing of students' bodies (dress, food consumption, bathroom use...), requiring "correct" grammar in chat boxes & camera use, etc.

Dear Teachers & Parents, My 13 year old started creating a collection of stories, highlighting one AAPI leader each day to create a list of 31 by the end of May. It's created by a kid for kids. Here's access to the google slides: tinyurl.com/AAPIMonthEMC #AAPIHM #miseducAsian

I spend a lot of time as a teacher (and now professor) figuring out what it means to live responsibly with/share my power in the classroom and beyond...

Virtual Event: “The Model Minority Myth and AAPI Solidarity in CS and Tech” on 5/20 @ 4pm! What is the Model Minority Myth, how does it impact AAPI’s in tech and CS, and what should AAPI solidarity look like? RSVP Here: …ructingjustcsedandtech.splashthat.com

AAPI, Black, & Latinx students make up 48% of the public school population, but a recent report found 75% of CS teachers nationwide are white. As classrooms become more diverse, we need a CS teacher workforce that reflects the faces of our students. kaporcenter.org/the-computer-s…

As a CS teacher, professional development designer, and curriculum writer, this Culturally Responsive-Sustaining CS Education Framework is my North Star. Thank you Kapor Center for this generous, brilliant contribution to society. #KaporCRCS ✨

Thank you for putting them up, Eleni, making your Latinx community at Revere feel seen this month and every month as modern change makers in computer science. ❤️#WeAreSFUSD
