"[coding] should be taught like a language, you have elements of learning syntax but you also have "conversation" classes where you produce code in small groups. This also creates the option of using coding courses to fulfill second language requirements."

"as of 2016 over 20% of listed jobs required coding skills. It used to be this kind of niche skill that software engineers held, but now it's central to all STEM fields"

California passed a new law that will mandate K-12 students to learn media literacy as part of their modules plan.
The bill is designed to help students develop skills in identifying false information online amid a worrying rise in distrust in the media. trib.al/MZZWvcy

Being asked to participate in the @CAMathCouncil @cmc_south conference Ignite was a real honor. You know what's even better? My family drove in LA traffic for 4 hours to surprise me and see it in person! The night of my professional life. Thank you to all who made it happen.

If you help run a conference for math educators, I have a question for you: what are you doing to encourage younger teachers (who tend to use Instagram and TikTok instead of Twitter and Facebook) to come to your conference?
How do they know that your conference exists?

Love this - @JohnCUrschel retired early from the NFL, in which careers are very short, to spend an entire lifetime doing concussion-free mathematics. Well played sir.

Math learning may be more transferable than markets learning:
He said he found it easier to teach "mathematicians about the markets than it is to teach mathematics and programming to people who know about the markets."

Why Won’t Elite Colleges Deploy the One Race-Neutral Way to Achieve Diversity?
"Giving a leg up to poor students of all races would diversify elite schools. Officials would rather do anything else."

News companies own higher quality, factual written content than freely available internet content.
#ChatGPT's learning models need high quality training data.
Time to pay media companies for the value that quality content adds to ChatGPT.
