Thank you to OECD ➡️ Better Policies for Better Lives for inviting @TinaCardone & me (Lesley University) & K John, Siobahn Mulligan, Julie Ward (Cambridge Schools) to share our thoughts on defining student engagement. *Our time was funded by @Biogen. #GlobalTeachingInSights #ObservationMasterclasses #BiogenSTAR

8 years later... flight and lodging are confirmed. I will return in two weeks to Georgia Tech to be given a distinguished alumni award.

Because it needs to be repeated.

Powerful convening of civil rights & ed advocates upholding Bob Moses' work bobmosesconference.com focusing on providing "children at the bottom w/ an education required for membership in our 21st-century hi-tech society" Proud of Nettrice discussing artivism, AI & Afrofuturism

Very excited to see my colleague, Nettrice included in a conference commemorating the work of Bob Moses, and joining civil rights & education activists to focus on ensuring educational opportunities to support engaged citizenship for black youth in a 21st century.

Wonderful to see this portrait of Bob Moses created by Nettrice and used as a backdrop by Dr. Janet Moses as she introduced Dr. Cornel West for closing remarks at the Bob Moses Conference - what a powerful event and catalyst for action and engagement.

Far too many Americans fear and hate math. Sadly, this is often related to the way they were taught math in school. Stanford professor Jo Boaler is one of the authors of a new California Mathematics Framework which is addressing this problem. I support this effort.

There is STEM. There is STEAM. And then there are the students designing homeostatic control for the African Futurist Greenhouse while the Nkisi keep watch. More at csdt.org/culture/system…. #hiphoped #cs4all #decolonize

Nicely done Luke! The field is all the better for having you has an ITS (one of the few with this new license) Bravo!

In 2022 my digital art has been on view at the Smithsonian, Carnegie Hall, the Umbrella Arts Center (MA), and now Lincoln Center (today). At least one of my pieces is in a permanent collection at the Smithsonian. Leah Buechley kind of predicted it in her Forward for my book.

Microbit rolling station is (mostly) ready to go!

Psyched to see your advancing computational thinking through #PhysicalComputing !

Come meet Kit 🏳️‍🌈 and @JenMilesCMA at @ATMNE_Math this week. You can find them at the @ASSISTments booth or talking #math everywhere!

Super excited to see Charlie Meyer, @Lesley_U 2022 #DLCS graduate and Methuen High School Methuen Schools educator awarded the Project Lead The Way "Rookie of the Year" at the @Mass_STEMHub Fall Conference -- Woot! Woot! Way to Go, Charlie!!

There is still time to join us for Math + Quilting: A Maker Bootcamp, a workshop series for K-5 & 6-8 math educators Lesley Steam @Lesley_U and facilitated by @nettib, Rashmi Pimprikar, and me 😆. These workshops are in-person & virtually. For more details, go to steam.lesley.edu/workshops/

Very exciting (for all of us!) Congrats!

Closer look at school closures and NAEP data, finding limited correlation (I'm surprised). There is a lot we don't know about what happened in schools during the pandemic, and a lot we don't know about what the effects will be. educationrecoveryscorecard.org/wp-content/upl…
