Sorry for switching to English because my pinyin is really poor and it is much faster for me to type.

I am in California, the equality movement has pushed many contents off the K-12 curriculum, SAT is cancelled, and UCs start to take race as a factor in college admissions. My kids go to public schools which are affected the most. Having said that, IMHO, going to private schools would not make much difference as this is a top down movement, our kids cannot avoid from being affected by the college admissions and by jobs screening.

My old son will be in 7th grade this fall. Every kid get chrome book now and they start to play video games or watch youtube when teachers have to help disadvantaged kids.

I do not want my son to waste time on video game or youtube in classroom. Our kids do not have video game play time at home. Ironically, they can get play time at school. I started to build this website for my son to practice programming skills at the end of last year. It is ready for more people to use. He can build projects whenever he has free time in his classroom while other kids are playing video games. He will start to build and practice one project every weekday this coming fall.

My intention is to create many micro-bite size mini projects to cover all the important CS subjects of a 4 year CS program so he can essentially make the same amount of programming practices with the same depth before his graduation from high school. Here is my plan for him: PlayC.

He may still goes to college, but he will not have to compete for the CS majors.

If any parents are also concerned about your kids future, I would love to work with you to help them to build marketable skills. I believe skills will matter more in the future.

These coding projects are suitable for adults too. I believe with sufficient practice, anyone can master the programming skills. To be great at programming, you do not need any advanced math knowledge. Just clear thinking and logic are sufficient to help you succeed.

I will answer any questions. Thanks a lot for reading.
