There’s a new @NSF grant for US citizens who graduated after 2016 but before 2019 who want to get a doctoral degree in CS/IS. You can’t be enrolled in a masters or doctoral now.

That eligibility is such a weird Venn diagram of people I can send it to… https://www.nsf.gov/cise/CSGrad4US/csgrad4us-form.pdf

Tool kit for Co-Design with Kids

The University of Baltimore’s Digital Whimsy Lab is proud to announce the release of our KidsTeam Co-Design Toolkit. This toolkit can aid design teams in the creation of co-design activities that enable children and adults to work together. Even though the original target audience was libaries and librarians, we think the content is a valuable resource for any team that wants to design with kids and aren’t sure where to start.

@round snark free comment: I went over the TiVo’s Pause button with my students. The entire physical interface was built around the core interaction of pausing.

It’s really a great example of user-based and activity-based design.

I Made This: Marker Holder for your Board

I’ve been reconfiguring my desk to accomodate my research, design, and teaching work. One of the favorite features of my home office is the

two giant walls with whiteboard “paint”. Of course, the big downside to walls of white boards instead of framed white boards is the lack of a tray for the markers. I’ve

tried to keep them on my desk but I kept losing them. I decided to build a marker holder to help. I plan on sticking it to the wall with command strips.

@KevinACross I’ve been playing with it for 7 years and used to mine it. It doesn’t get patched as much as it splits code bases to move on. New variants are sometimes formed from the parts left over.

I think it’s as trustworthy as fiat currency is trustworthy.
