Teachers are excellent problem solvers. Heck, we solve hundreds every day. But what about the ones we can't solve? This piece offers suggestions on how we can conduct a mini-research project to attack problems. edutopia.org/article/solving… via @TeachAskWhy @DrSunainaSharma @edutopia

I named her 𝙶𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚒𝚎, inspired by the legacy of Grace Hopper and her impact on women in computer science. 𝟚𝕆𝟚𝟜 - I stood outside THE Cruft Laboratory - the very spot where brilliance thrived eight decades ago. What a surreal experience. I am forever grateful. #DiscoverGracie #CodeBreaker #WomenInSTEM

Aw. My heart. You guys … I did in fact write a book. A labor of love because it’s something I wrote to serve others. And when you serve you know you got nothing but love in your heart. I can’t downplay the love in these words. When you care a whole awful lot it shows. I hope it shows to you. And I hope you keep showing others. We get this one life 💗 a.co/d/iJz1GYw

On the hallowed grounds of MIT. Edith Clarke, Edie’s namesake, was the first the female to earn her master’s in electrical engineering from MIT in 1919. #DiscoverGracie 🏛️🧠 #TravelAdventures 🧳
