ChatGPT, other AIs, blockchain all run on the same fuel. Data is the new oil, and we have a narrow chance to make it accessible for every high school graduate. I am SO grateful to @hechingerreport @L_willen for the opportunity on this opinion piece.

“Many of our math educators are happy to say #DataScience belongs in math, but also say “I’m not a stats person, I’m not a data person… . We need to shift mindsets, and the teacher pipeline is in dire need of redefinition and investment” - ⁦@Steph_Does_Math⁩ at #SXSWEdu

A top quote from #SXSWEdu this year: . “If something is Google-able, that’s the wrong question in a high school math classroom. If you are worried about students cheating with Google, that is the wrong question to ask on a test.” - Lindsey Henderson ⁦@flippyfeets

“There is an alphabet soup - data science, computer science, AI, cybersecurity — now even quantum computing in K-12. How can we work together, and elevate equal passion about all these things for our students, in a way that’s approachable?” - SFE VP Joshua Elder @ #SXSWEdu
