Picture of students with an overlaying quote that says “I had a top student who struggled because coding didn't come easily for her. We talked about how it’s a completely new way of thinking. She worked very hard, had the top score on the last two exams, and is now considering a programming minor in college.”

Thank you to all the fantastic CS educators cultivating that "aha" moment with their students during #CSEdWeek and year-round!

Not sure how to bring that excitement to a course like #APCSA? Explore the #ProjectBased UTeach AP CSA curriculum at cs.uteach.utexas.edu/csa
Picture of students with an overlaying quote that says “I enjoy watching the AHA moments when students are struggling with a concept and then the lightbulb goes on and they've got it. I know they've made the concept theirs and they truly understand what is happening.”
