Woodie Flowers was instrumental in helping me understand that @FIRSTweets is “More Than Robots”. This is the time of year when experienced students are teaching new team members about FIRST Values and sharing the unique culture of FIRST. His impact lives on. #WalkLikeWoodie

Software Engineering students had the perfect setting for their book group discussions in the @NNHSLC . Great to step away from the coding and think deeply about how it impacts people. #Elevate203

There are many things that I'm enjoying about my new role as a Learning Support Coach. One that I didn't anticipate is the opportunity to read (and re-read from a new perspective) so many books. Lots of learning! #Elevate203

Today in Software Engineering, we started to define our classroom norms using @Jennifer_Manly’s activity. Ss brainstormed ideas, combined similar ones, categorized, and voted with stars. Next week we will review the results and discuss the details and accountability. #Elevate203

Today in Software Engineering, we started the conversation around the intersection of technology, society, and ethics. Students discussed excerpts from Weapons of Math Destruction and identified the bias embedded in the algorithms. #Elevate203

Any one have any idea when/if OpenAI will be offering subscriptions/pricing for large entities—like school districts? Same for Midjourney. Anyone? Please share with anyone in your circle who might know. #aieducation
