On this #IDPWD2024, @misrael09 and I are excited to report @Googleorg has awarded us $450,000 grant to integrate POUR with Google Blockly. Congrats to Google for their investment in teachers and learners as well as the other award winners.
Presented Critical Thinking Stealth Assessment, a digital game developed to teach critical thinking to secondary students, at the AECT conference co-written with Salah Esmaeiligoujar, Syed Hassan Tanvir, Assel Abdrakhmanova, and @sahmadrahimi ;
Congrats to my advisor / mentor @misrael09 on selection for this award. Have learned a lot about research leadership since joining @CTRL_UF so well deserved.
The University of Florida Research Foundation has named 34 faculty members as UFRF Professors for 2024. These @UF professors have shown exceptional research accomplishments and leadership in their fields. See all 34 UFRF Professors for 2024. news.ufl.edu/2024/05/uf-rese…
apnews.com/article/blind-hea… Great project expanding opportunities for people to experience eclipses.
Honored to have worked with @MckennaJ72 and his team. My work and comments on a #SIGCSE24 panel are included in his wrap-up.
I've read #SIGCSE wrap ups for years. Excited to finally be able to write my own. Read on to discover how abstract art, accessibility in coding, and the beauty of diversity can transform our approach to education. #EdTech #Accessibility

Besides the poster, I also presented on a panel sponsored by Google at #sigcse24 with fellow panelists and poster co-authors Maya Israeland Jason McKenna where we talked further about accessibility in computer science education.
Pleased to present findings of teachers' perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust (POUR) analysis of @VEXRobotics VEX123 at this week's #SIGCSE24. @misrael09, Joanne Barrett, Kelly Thomas, and @MckennaJ72, are co-authors.

Excited to have received two SIGCSE poster acceptances, one as lead author. For the lead author one, reviewers were excited about the "clear and concise" innovative framework. Grateful for good mentorship and our amazing research/practice partners.

Supported by a $100,000 grant from @Google, UF researchers are working with @browardschools to scale a proven professional development program designed to expand access to computer science for students with disabilities. ialt.education.ufl.edu/2023/…
Please join @misrael09 @CheriFancsali, Wei Li, and I tomorrow as we present our research on computer science participation of students with disabilities in a major school district.

For those who, unlike me, are actually at the #AERA23 conference, our lab will be presenting a structured poster session on multiple entry points of instruction in neurodiverse classrooms. Lots of other great CS researchers in the session too. tinyurl.com/2j2jge6a
