DFI 8 Computational Thinking
What a blast this was today. I am not sure I ever thought I would become so absorbed in Minecraft, Flappy Code or Kodable to the point of not wanting to close the tab and get back into the main meet. I'll make the most of the code.org site and the tutorials, videos and planning on How to Plan Your Hour of Code 
It was good to have another dip into The New Digital technologies Curriculum. The TKI Technology on line resource was really good, (thanks Kerry) and it's a relief to have the links between DFI programme, Digital Tech Curric, and TKI for us and our students. The plethora of resources shared with us today links into work we've begun using Bots, Scratch Junior and non digital computational thinking projects. Once again the biggest issue is time, although the upcoming 5 day break may be an opportunity to dig deeper.
What will I use with my class - definitely Hour of Code - super brilliant to have such a great resource!
Kia ora Wendy,
ReplyDeleteI hope you managed to relax over the Easter break and didn't spend all weekend coding! You are so right, there are so many resources and sometimes this can be as challenging as not enough - where do you start! I'm glad there were resources we shared that link in what what you have been using at school.
