@codeorg is trying to democratize computer science. Some good work is being done here. I wish there was greater representation of Black girls and boys coding.https://twitter.com/hadip/status/1102367752004657152 …

Great question. Our work is done by ~1M teachers. *They* are the face of CS in their classrooms, in ~1/3 of US schools. Our teachers represent every race, gender, and walk, of life. The majority are women. Their results: nearly-balanced representation of students by race.pic.twitter.com/OaCqBatHmT
A perfect example is Alexis Dixon, who was highlighted in the @60Minutes piece today. She's helping change the face of computing, alongside 1M teachers who share our cause:https://twitter.com/60Minutes/status/1102370248286715906 …

Nice try, again. Highlighting one teacher is anecdotal. I’ve been teaching CS for nearly 20 years in colleges, reaching roughly 1000 students. I’ve obtained a BS, MS and PhD in CS. Some folks like me on your leadership could deepen impact if our advice is taken.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
