Yup. Computer science is an application of mathematics in the theoretical designs of binary (and eventually quantum) computational architectures, while also being an application of (and contributor to) every other science known to man. Let’s make it happen, indeed. CS4IL

I have never heard of any high school - anywhere - running AP Calc and AP Stats in the same room, at the same time, taught by the same teacher. That feels almost silly to write. So why is this such common practice in high schools that offer both AP Computer Science courses?

Just as puzzling to me: how come we don’t talk about this practice of “stacking” Computer Science courses more often across the #CSforAll, #DEI, #AcademicTwitter, and broader #edreform communities? It’s time we find another way. This is *not* a “best practice”. #iledchat

CS4IL is now an official member of ECEP. We look forward to collaborating with all of the IL state leaders to diversify #CSEd pathways in IL.

Be part of the first-ever Illinois CS PD week. Open new doors for your K12 students. There are innovative, hands-on, equity-centered PD opportunities at #CSPDWeek for teachers & administrators across all grade bands. Scholarships are also available to those who qualify. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Really looking forward to meeting so many fellow Illinois K12 #ComputerScience teachers at #CSPDWeek this July 17-21st. More than just a weeklong experience, we’re going to build & support the largest, most inclusive statewide network of CS teachers ever. Join us. Learning Technology Center (LTC)

Chicago has a high concentration of people who identify into one or more historically underrepresented groups in #computerscience. The same can be said across the rest of Illinois. We need to stop tethering our work toward #CSforAll in IL to its zip codes, 606XX or otherwise.

Good morning & welcome to everyone joining us at #ILCSPDWeek! 👋 If you just touched down at Bloomington Jr. High: 🧑‍🚀Visit check-in (inside door W-2 off Colton St.) for supplies (space suit not included) 📸 Share pics w/ your crewmates #ILCSPDWeek Discovery Partners Institute CS4IL

My first day at Computer Science PD week in Illinois. Some great books here for the teachers ⁦Dr. Shuchi Grover 🇮🇳🇺🇸🌎⁩

Honored to partner with Learning Technology Center (LTC), Discovery Partners Institute, and many others who helped launch Illinois’ 1st-ever statewide #CSPDWeek, in service to the teachers and districts here who are committed to preparing students for their future. And yes, Dr. Shuchi Grover 🇮🇳🇺🇸🌎, a pleasure to recommend this.

This amazing group of educators spent a week in Bloomington Normal learning how to bring computer science education back to their schools! They made history at the first ever Illinois CS PD Week! Learning Technology Center (LTC) Illinois State Board of Education CS4IL Discovery Partners Institute

I just used this with teachers and it is a GAME CHANGER! I love how I can share programs easily, see student code in progress, and download work for a later session. I love everything about this and will tell anyone who will listen to me talk about it 🤣

We now have an entire generation of high school students for whom #Y2K is a quick history lesson, despite its impact on society, economy, and culture. Today, new technologies of unknown impact also “happen” to our society. Shouldn’t kids learn the societal impact of new tech?

Attention all Illinois K12 CS teachers: If you have not already joined Illinois’ new CSTA Illinois chapter, we’ve got a space at the table waiting for you. Join us now: illinois.csteachers.org

Love this.

Everyone thinks that success is down to: Hard work. Luck. Intelligence. They're wrong. After building 2 startups in Silicon Valley, I've seen one rare trait all successful founders have. Here's what it is (and how you can build this rare trait too):

Sometimes, I question my choice to become a teacher, but not today. My students went above and beyond, sharing their creative process and challenges and yes, I might’ve teared up Proud of their creativity and perseverance! Thanks to Emily Flach from Learning Technology Center (LTC) for attending!

Illinois is a leader in quantum computing research. 🔬 Governor JB Pritzker (Governor JB Pritzker) advances tech education by proclaiming #CSEdWeek! Cheers to Illinois State Board of Education and @CSforIL. Read more: drive.google.com/file/d/1cqhI0n… Code.org
