How are you raising up the next generation of developers? Is there a way to teach kids programming that is less like a "sage on the stage" and more like a "guide on the side"?

Join Chris and Austin as they discuss with #educators Jeanine Rioux and David Coopersmith how they have used collaborative coding techniques like #MobProgramming to teach CompSci for K-12 students. They not only share how they code with the kids in the classroom but also about how they set up annual #MobProgramming experiences for their students with Chris, Austin, and other professional engineers. Lastly, they discuss how they help themselves and other teachers pursue the goal of being life-long learners.
