@jacqueline.russell I’m presenting on creative custom coding lessons using the MakeCode Tutorial Editor and Arcade at Maryland Common Grounds, ISTE, and CSTA this year. I would love to connect with someone from the year on my experiences with it and any resources or support you all may have, or if you want to partner up on some of it, that would be awersome too!

Hi @Winess! Oh wow, that’s great news! Happy to support however you’d like. I will be at CSTA, so let me know if you’d like to team up. Not sure if I’m going to ISTE. I just did a “Write your own Tutorial” workshop for micro:bit educators. Presentation and a markdown cheat-sheet can be found here: https://aka.ms/mbitlive26. Feel free to use any of this if it makes sense for you. Feel free to email me directly if you’d like to coordinate for events - jacqueline.russell@microsoft.com.
