Anyone can learn to code and if you can learn to code, you can code to learn! Coding can be very abstract. It is a picturesque canvas. It supports one’s spatial awareness. It’s like playing chess and being five moves ahead based on three different scenarios. This is something students must develop in the 21st century.\nQuite often, the first time you write code, the code doesn’t work. That’s important because that’s when innovation and problem solving happens! There are many benefits of learning to code. Coding empowers kids and puts them in control of the device. It builds mastery through experimentation. Coding fosters problem solving, logical thinking, critical and computational thinking. Most importantly, it is a safe space to take risks and learn from failure!\nBut best of all, coding can give you superpowers!\nGrab the second book in the Gracie series! When her teacher brings a robot into the classroom and teaches Gracie to code, she unlocks a world of creativity, innovation, and discovery she’d never imagined. Follow Gracie as she learns to code, learns to problem solve and learns to take risks in her learning!

Through first hand experiences and stories of both failure and success, Brian Aspinall, Daphne McMenemy, Matthew X. Joseph, and Christine Ravesi-Weinstein address four critical topics important in today’s educational environment: toxicity, failure, perspective, and voice.\nIn our ever changing landscape, we must learn to see the value in failure. We must realize that perspectives make all the difference in the way we interact with our world. We must understand how toxicity can define who we become as educators and we must provide opportunities for all learners to experience growth and express themselves creatively.\nIn a world that changes overnight, the only strategy guaranteed to fail is not trying something new. For this change to occur, we must be comfortable with discomfort and disrupt the status quo.

Disrupt the Status Quo: Inspire. Innovate. Lead. Teach. Learn.
