from @jdvscience2 A4: As a community based organization the challenge of building capacity to sustain critical program components is one challenge #InfyXRoads #CS4rural

From @jdvscience2 A2, A3 We immerse communities and schools with STEM and making through grants, contracts, and donated time so growth of programs across stakeholders is tracked #infyXRoad #cs4rural
From @jdvscience2 A3: Also measure number of students and parents participating and also survey groups for content knowledge and growth of youth development assets over time in program #InfyXRoads #CS4rural

A5: 1. Culturally relevant curriculum is what engages students and teachers.
2. Patience and persistence are essential.
3. You must keep teachers engaged with a support system that you build with them. .#InfyXRoads #cs4rural (1/2)

I agree 100%. This is especially true in our rural agricultural communities that are seeing a brain drain and don't always see how CS is part of the future of #farming and #ranching #InfyXRoads #cs4rural

A4: I think one challenge is helping stakeholders understand what CS is and can be for our future. #InfyXRoads #cs4rural
