It is extremely irresponsible and dangerous for adults to anthropomorphize artificial intelligence in K12 spaces and K12 adjacent spaces. Artificial intelligence is not human. Artificial intelligence is not sentient. Stop confusing children.

Kicked off #CSEdWeek with #HourofCode w/third & fourth graders. I worked w/a colleague to pair state book award nominees w/different coding activities. Students watched a trailer/listened to an excerpt of a book, then completed the coding activity. Lots of fun! #TLSky #EduSky #schoollibrary #kidlit

Just a reminder to the young’uns that in the olden days there were MAGAZINES that PRINTED WHOLE COMPUTER PROGRAMS and we had to TYPE THEM IN line by line because that was a reasonable way to make our own computers do fun things. (and for us to learn a bit by osmosis) #TeamCompSci #CSEdWeek
