For the Computer Science Principles classes last week I had them define Computer Science . The Wordle below is from their definitions after Unit 1. I am planning on having them do this each unit and see how our collective definition shifts as we layer on more material. I think this might make a good writing prompt later int he year.
- Been using this site with my Algebra I kids: http://learnscratch.org/ I am hoping to incorporate Scratch and Graphing
- Curious to Try this: http://www.learnstreet.com/teacher_signup as the AP Computer Science Principles classes start on the Internet and HTML
- Rereading As We May Think by Vannevar Bush - this document, from 1945, first suggests hypertext. Beyond the reading level of most of my high school kids, but some good nuggets
- As the computer club keeps working on their 3-D printer I am looking forward to trying Blockify
- Interesting Video recruiting for AP Studio Art: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwyeKseCShY
- And, we just found out our CSTA chapter will get 100 Finches to play with next fall! Cannot wait.
- And lastly made my hotel reservation for SIGCSE 2014. The one thing I learned coaching debate - make the hotel reservation early!
