Education is no longer contained within classroom walls or the physical site of a school building. Learning isn’t confined to the eight hours between the school bells chimes or the struggling budget of an underfunded program. Today, education can be found anywhere, by teaming up with students in Kenya or Skyping with an author in Sweden or chatting with an astrophysicist on the International Space Station.

The state of early care and education today is, in a word, unsustainable. Thats what a recent survey of 10,000 early childhood educators found, and its what providers continue to share anecdotally. With the pandemic in the rearview and the accompanying funding it brought the field now a fading memory many early education providers find that they cannot keep up with rising costs, staff shortages and low morale.

One of the great problems of teaching computer science is that there is a limited amount of time to teach and an unlimited amount of things that can be taught. There is very little degree of agreement of what must be taught. Teachers do the best they can but there is a good amount of variation on what gets taught. One thing that seems to always (or close to always) get left out is writing safe and secure code.

World Backup DayMarch 31st Every Year March 31st is called World Backup Day. At least once a year, I remind you to backup your data files to an external drive (like a flash drive). This is one that isnt connected to your local computer so cant be compromised if you get a virus. Cloud drives are good, but once a year, do the entire collection of data files to what is called an air gap driveone separated from any internet connection.

As designers drew up plans to revitalize the visual arts complex at California State University, Fullerton, they hoped to create a space that would encourage students to stay on campus as much as possible. Many of Fullertons students commute to campus from home. That means they need comfortable places to do homework, meet with professors or talk to classmates.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

National Library Week isan annual celebration highlighting the valuable role libraries, librarians, and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening our communities. In the mid-1950s, research showed that Americans were spending less on books and more on radios, televisions and musical instruments. Concerned that Americans were reading less, the ALA and the American Book Publishers formed a nonprofit citizens organization called the National Book Committee in 1954.

Colleges and universities are at a crossroads when it comes to student data. They have more information at their fingertips than ever before, yet harnessing it to drive meaningful change remains a challenge. A 2022 UCLA-MIT Press study found that higher education struggles to capture and leverage data for impact. This digital disconnect isnt just a result of outdated systems; its about the complex web of cultural, organizational and infrastructural barriers that leave many institutions data-rich

One of the many responsibilities of teaching is providing students with meaningful feedback. The goal is simple: to support their learning and help them improve. Whether written or verbal, feedback has the power to shape how students approach their education. The key is to provide feedback that encourages growth rather than discouraging effort. Here are a few strategies to make your feedback as an educator as effective as possible.

When we looked at how PCAS students thought about our classes (for our SIGCSE 2025 experience report ), I was surprised at students use of the word overwhelming when talking about CS classes. I was pleased that they positively contrasted our courses with CS classes that they had taken previously, but I didnt realize how much baggage the students brought with them how negatively they perceived computer science.

Weathering and Erosion: A Collaborative Process Weathering, the breakdown of rocks into smaller fragments, and erosion, the transportation of these fragments, work in tandem to shape the Earth's landscape. Physical weathering mechanisms, such as abrasion, frost wedging, and thermal stress, break rocks apart, while chemical weathering processes like oxidation, hydrolysis, and carbonation alter their composition.

Convergent Boundaries: These occur when two tectonic plates collide. Three types exist: continental-continental collisions (forming mountains), continental-oceanic collisions (resulting in volcanoes), and oceanic-oceanic collisions (creating island arcs). Divergent Boundaries: Here, plates move apart, allowing the asthenosphere to rise and melt, forming new crust (oceanic or continental) at mid-ocean ridges or rift valleys.
