12/11/2016 December 11, 2016For our class this past Tuesday students were introduced to Computer Science Education Week and viewed two videos showing how important computer science has become in our daily lives and for solving the world's problems. We then experimented with coding for the HOUR OF CODE. We worked together as a class to learn the process of moving coding blocks into the workspace and then running the program we had created. We are using Blockly, which is a collection of coding blocks that contain JavaScript code, to program a sequence of events. Because there were millions of students around the world using the Code.org servers for Hour of Code, we were advised that student progress would not be saved during that week, which is why we worked as a group. For our next class students will work through a sequence of coding challenges at their own pace on Code Studio. Comments are closed.
