Blown away by the gratitude of teachers in the #clearthelist movement I encourage all of you to find some and help. You don’t have to buy the whole list (you can though!!); just buy 1 item. Or 2. It all adds up. #clearthelist #clearthelists

Books, movies, picture media - images and stories of all types need to step up and diversify. This is how we get a variety of students involved in STEM - allow our students to see themselves in that role. ~Closing the Gender Gap #sxswedu #sxswedu18

"Asking if “tech in education” is a good thing is like asking if electricity in a classroom is a good thing. Tech is an accelerator and it will accelerate what is happening in the classroom- good or bad."@rec54 Let’s push to use it the right way!" #SXSWEDU
