Thatβs definitely on the list with the kids!
Ahhhh, books! Iβve definitely got that one covered. Iβm way behind my typical yearly pace.
But seriously, thoughβ¦ I spent 15 years in Tech and genuinely donβt have an answer to that questionβ¦
Itβs my first summer as a teacher and it feels *so* weird.
You mean I justβ¦ *donβt work* for 10 straight weeks? What the hell am I supposed to do with myself?

And the trolling by my students continues π
Just what I needed
Today is International Day of Women & Girls in Science. Your government might not support you. I do. #womeninscience
This aesthetic died far too soon π
I havenβt started season two yet, but I was a huge fan of the first one
I canβt recommend βFor All Mankindβ highly enough either, definitely worth a binge or two
This is awesome, thanks for the resource!
Being able to just have class outside has to be the biggest flex nearly every other discipline has over #csed
Had fun speaking about creating your own budget friendly, trash-picked homelab at #jeffcon today!
Super cool of my school district to put on an IT conference just for high schoolers. I would have *killed* for something like this 20 years ago.

42 hours. 200+ students. Pure creativity.
At Creative Jam, teens built games, murals, music, moviesβeven a DIY smart treadmill & a scavenger-hunt wearable that shocks you if you're too slow to find and scan an item.
Teens are *wildly* capable when given space to create.
I love this job β€οΈ

I decided to teach the TCP/IP model in an⦠unconventional way, today.
Instead of a standard computer-facing lecture, I thought I'd move the lesson outside and have the students adopt the roles of each layer themselves.
It was a blast! I can't wait to do it again next year.

Dear school bus drivers who stop in the middle of the intersection to physically block traffic: thank you for keeping our kids safe
So proud of my students, they did such a great job presenting their projects at NASAβs HRP IWS conference in Galveston this week π

This just gave me some serious Window Blinds flashbacks. Remember when computers had personality?
Humor this accurate should be illegal
Probably better than I could do
It seems like 90% of the personal cybersecurity advice I give to my students is βdonβt ever, for any reason, click any link, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or where youβve beenβ¦ ever, for any reason whatsoever.β

Making it work has required a lot of sacrifice from my wife and kids, but Iβm really glad I took the leap as well!
I just think itβs a shame that βsacrificeβ seems to be a required qualification to become an educator in fields as lucrative (and critical) as software development and cybersecurity.
My god thatβs a beautiful book cover
The user data mining is coming from inside the house
This perfectly explains why more of my people choose industry over education, despite many of them actually *wanting* to teach.
The salary gap is so mind bogglingly wide, and the cost of living is so damn high, it can hardly even feel like a question.

Looks like even GitHub Classroom isn't immune to floating point arithmetic errors π

I have them matching up descriptions and protocols with the appropriate OSI layer (i.e. TCP with Transport).
It seems counterintuitive, but the more I break them away from the computers, the better they seem to internalize the concepts.
I took over a high school CS program thats literally decades old. I feel really lucky to have the space and resources that I do!
