Advice from recent high school grads to K-12 CS teachers: ▶️ Always be patient. Encouragement makes a huge difference in persistence. ▶️ Keep going. Your job is so hard, often thankless but so important. We need you. Thanks to @drabigailjoseph for moderating at #CSTA2024!

We need to do better with accessibility in K-12 CS education. At #CSTA2024, @AndreasStefik of @unlv shares suggestions to make CS more accessible to students with disabilities: 1️⃣ Ed: only use accessible tech 2️⃣ @NSF: consider accessibility in grant reviews 3️⃣ tech: do better

Four common myths about accessibility: 1- impact is broad, 2- rationalizing lack of accessibility, 3- generalizing from 1 student, 4- need for more than self-advocacy
