Coming! With my pals from BeagleBoard.org 🐶🎉

Just waiting for MicroBlocks library support. 🤞Then an XRP will end up in my shopping cart. 🛒🥳

I loved attending National Youth Science Camp. 💚
I sure hope I can return to camp one of these days to teach #physicalcomputing to the next generation of campers. 🤞🤖🪄🥳

I *always* run the MicroBlocks pilot. 👩‍✈️ I eagerly download the enhancements and 'play'. Going to try the new ELECFREAKS Smart Cutebot Pro library. 🦾🤖

Thanks Code Savvy #MNCodesSummit2024 !

🤯Watch MicroBlocks pilot version running in Chrome wirelessly write code (using #WebBLE ) to a Micro:bit Educational Foundation board!

Go to 11:30 in our keynote to see the magic! 🦾🤖🪄

I taught physical computing 🤖using MicroBlocks to public school girls at the FabLab in Abuja, Nigeria last Saturday. Soon they'll build IoT solutions. No joke. 🦾
Thanks🇳🇬TechWomen fellows💗for organizing it!

And thank you Cosmopolitan University Abuja for hosting the event organized by B -- I got to moderate a celebrity panel doing mind-blowingly 🤯 great work! 🎉

#twimpact #TCIWnigeria

But... with all that great open source hardware (and software) being demonstrated and handed out in goody bags, there's real value in attending in person (if you can). 😉

Really looking forward to it! 🥳

#physicalcomputing = #handsonlearningfun

🔍 Hmm, which co-keynote speaker looks most like me? 😉 Happy to inspire and challenge educators to incorporate more 🤖 physical computing (🦾 hands on learning) in the state where I grew up. MN provided me with a great educational opportunity (many moons ago)! 🎓

Already feeling the positive ✨ 'impact' ✨ after my first day participating in the 'Tech Community Impact Week' Nigeria 2024, organized by TechWomen fellows Nigeria. 🇳🇬
MicroBlocks training and workshops are high priority on my agenda. 🤖🦾🎉
#STEM #twimpact

Ready for my first meeting in Nigeria 🇳🇬- I have toys I can program with ⁦MicroBlocks⁩ ready to demo! 🤖🦾🦿🎉

MicroBlocks and databotUSA are going zero gravity!!!

⏳ Hurry! There is only one day left to submit your proposal to present at the 2024 MNCodes Educator Summit! Don't hesitate to submit a proposal for a session today!

#CSeducation #CallForProposals #LastChance

Answering the call! 🎉 I'll stuff some extra electronics goodies⚡️into my suitcase🧳to use for prizes... best of luck to Climate hackathon teams Nigeria! 🏆

Can’t wait to load up MicroBlocks firmware on it so I can give it a go! (Of course we’ll need our core devs to build such an image first…)
#physicalcomputing is fun! 🤩

📢 WebThings Gateway 1.2 Alpha available for testing discourse.mozilla.org/t/webthings-ga…

Can you join our Tech Community Impact Week activities, when I’m visiting Abuja 🇳🇬 March 5-9?
Another #twimpact2024 benefit organized by TechWomen fellows Nigeria 💪
And of course I will teach some MicroBlocks workshops! 🥳🤖

Still hoping to leverage the depth and portability of hw coverage offered by Zephyr Project (to build low level firmware) with the ease of logical programming using MicroBlocks 🤞💪👍

Looks like just what we need to help our local Technovation teams who are participating for the 1st time this year!! 🙌
HispanicFoundationSV girls at KIPP, let’s try this when we meet tomorrow! 🤞
