I love this. It is so important that CSTA is at the forefront of all AI conversations. We need to advocate for students to learn about AI not just to use it. Thank you @csteachersorg and @jakebask for representing all of us.

Teachers want to and should be able to teach our full honest history, warts and all — and in our state, they can.
We have three words for you: come to Illinois.
Here in Illinois, we do not shy away from our complex histories or identities. We encourage dialogue from multiple perspectives. We protect the freedom and professional judgment of educators. Read @TonySandersSupt's message to teachers who want to teach 🍏okt.to/vBEVMY

Just know that whenever someone says teachers are “in it for the outcome, not the income.” It is just an adorably clever way of exploiting educators, who obviously care deeply about their students, and guilt them into accepting that they are grossly underpaid.
