Here's a lesson plan I wrote to have students create a @RubeGoldberg machine in @FNCreate - kids love it and it gets into science, simple machines, engineering, etc.
unrealengine.com
Full of humor, wit, and based on simple machines, Rube Goldberg inventions are described as overly complex machines comprised of a number of automated actions to solve a simple problem. Students will...
I know that a lot of parents feel like @FortniteGame is an opponent they need to fight, but if Epic made a Fortnite-themed Engineering Game that borrowed some of the building mechanics then there are a lot of parents that would begin to see it as more of an ally. 8/?

I love rocks. Look at these right next to my wheel. Are they volcanic or sedimentary? What story do they tell? Can’t wait to find out. #CountdownToMars

In August we launched Minecraft: Education Edition on #Chromebooks. Now, we’re excited to announce that students can log in to #MinecraftEdu directly through their school-issued #GoogleEdu accounts. Learn how: https://t.co/iyZPO21lew

Thank you, we’ve had enough bashing for awhile. We didn’t get into the profession for recognition, but sure nice to hear it sometimes. I breath a bit easier for my 3 yr old daughter and my students tonight.
For America’s educators, this is a great day: You’re going to have one of your own in the White House, and Jill is going to make a great First Lady.

He's using the American military against the American people. He tear-gassed peaceful protesters and fired rubber bullets. For a photo. For our children, for the very soul of our country, we must defeat him. But I mean it when I say this: we can only do it together.
Police in Washington, D.C. used tear gas and rubber bullets on peaceful protesters to clear them away from St. John's church, which suffered a small fire Sunday night, near the White House. President Trump then walked to the church for a photo op. https://t.co/QrdVmtcfUA

Trump just had peaceful demonstrators viciously attacked. No, Mr. President. This is not a dictatorship. This is the United States of America. Our citizens have a constitutional right to peacefully protest. It's called the First Amendment.

To all New Jerseyans – I deeply appreciate your cooperation with our efforts to promote social distancing. I know it’s not easy being cooped-up in the house, but this what we all need to get through this together.

This is great news. I don't know exactly which hospitals are most in need, but my understanding is NYC and Seattle hospitals are in acute danger. If you're a hospital with a ventilator shortage or someone in a position to compile a list, please let @elonmusk and me know here.
@NateSilver538 Tesla makes cars with sophisticated hvac systems. SpaceX makes spacecraft with life support systems. Ventilators are not difficult, but cannot be produced instantly. Which hospitals have these shortages you speak of right now?
