Got to put my “teacher hat” back on and work with students yesterday at Montclair University”s first annual Day of Computing! This is a great program that’s designed to get kids in grades 4-8 more interested in #STEM related fields.

The Piper Make kits were a big hit!

Educators are the best!

Met this group at #TCEA and they gave me these little pocket trinkets every time they saw me. 🥹

More people in this world should give pocket hugs.❤️

And folks wonder why #teachers want to leave the profession?! 🤔🤨🤦🏻‍♀️

From a teacher friend in LA:

“…we received an email asking to start uploading school work. [That] is the absolute last thing [we] need to be thinking about…There are tens of thousands of people in the community without homes, power, internet, and basic resources….”

I'm SO excited to be attending my first (ever!) #FETC conference next week with Play Piper!

Who else will be there?!

I'd love to meet up, buy you a coffee, and chat about all things #STEM and technology related!☕

Drop by our booth to say hi, or message me to grab that coffee.😉

I visited Play Piper’s manufacturing facility in San Fran last week!

I got to meet many new faces on our team. We spent a day working in teams with the Piper Computer and Piper Make products, and ended with a Make-A-Thon.

Happy holidays to all!

It was a fun few days last week at @Piper’s manufacturing facility in San Francisco! We engaged with the Pioer Computer and Piper Make products, and ended our day with a Make-A-Thon! 💻 It was then off...

A2: 'Creativity takes courage.' I use this quote to inspire both teachers and students. Creativity has no right or wrong—it’s about taking that first step. I often do the projects as well, showing vulnerability and leading by example. This has been a big win in others jumping right in! #EduSkyChat

A3) There are so many choices now, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. Pick 1-2 things and work on teaching/learning about those. Dont be afraid to be uncomfortable. It’s ok if your Ss know more about a topic (let’s say podcasting).Have them teach you while they teach others! #eduskychat
Question 3 #EduSkyChat

Psst... there will be a special bonus question tonight too!

A2) I don’t think it’s too hard to convince them to be content creators. Even the introverts can create written content! I think the hardest part is demonstrating how/why to use it responsibly…to understand what digital citizenship and digital footprints really mean. #eduskychat
