In any professional organization there is always a need to find a balance between communicating effectively with members to ensure that that they have access to relevant and timely information, and bombarding them with unwanted messages. In April, we launched the CSTA Voice, a quarterly newsletter dedicated to informing members about important issues affecting computer science education and the activities of the organization. We think that the newsletter is a great way to communicate more formally with our members.
At the same time, however, we wanted a way to reach out on a more informal basis, provide up-to-the-minute information, and foment discussion, without filling up your email in-boxes. Our solution was to build this blog. Now you can check in any time to see what is new, where CSTA is going, and what folks are thinking. So welcome to the CSTA Advocate!
