Vector Scratch Blocks

Vector Scratch Blocks
In September 2014 Computing will be a new curriculum subject and I wanted to make some resources that could be used to support Scratch After seeing these hands-on blocks I thought it would be great if anyone could make their own. So I set about creating some vector versions of the standard Scratch blocks that could be scaled to any size required. As I created them I also thought how useful it would be if Teachers could use them in other ways, for example, displays, PowerPoints and on Interactive Whiteboards. With this in mine the Scratch Block Package currently contains 66 blocks in the following formats: SVG – Scalable Vector Graphics. I hope these are of use to the education community.

mon premier jeu en Scratch | Coursinfo.fr Comment puis-je faire un jeu ou une animation avec Scratch ? Tout d’abord, exerces toi avec les fiches d’exercices Scratch. Puis, crée ton premier jeu en suivant les consignes : créer un jeu de courbes Ensuite, crée un jeu un peu plus complexe comme le jeu de Pong (en suivant les consignes). Enfin, crée un super jeu en suivant les consignes du jeu des Gobos. Au besoin, consulter la page d‘aide du site pour voir de nombreuses façons de commencer avec Scratch. Tu peux trouver de nouvelles idées pour tes projets en parcourant les autres projets sur le site Internet de Scratch. Si tu aimes l’un des personnages, l’une des images ou l’un des scripts d’un autre projet, télécharge simplement le projet et utiliser les parties intéressantes dans ton propre projet Scratch. De nombreux sites internet proposent aussi des tutoriels. Ou tout simplement, tu peux plonger dans l’éditeur de projets et laisser faire ton imagination … Les cartes Scratch accéder aux cartes :

Discerning Decomposition and computational disposition with Archelino: : A dialogue | Math + Code 'Zine Steven Khan & Sally Rudakoff This article is presented as a research informed dialogue between the two authors. It represents a reconstruction of conversations that occurred over several weeks, in person and via email as we explored the affordances of a wooden puzzle game for scaffolding understanding of the process of decomposition as used in computational thinking (CT) frameworks and computational dispositions in the early years alongside academic readings. We have not identified either one of us as S1 or S2. S1: We both work with teachers in some way and I notice that some teachers are struggling with really appreciating the difference between computational thinking processes and coding as a literacy and of course how it relates to their curriculum. S2: I agree. Critical aspects of computational thinking S1: “Critical aspects?” Dispositional aspects of computational thinking S1: “Thanks. S2: “Kids love games! Discerning Decomposition & Recomposition S1: “So what do players have to do?”

The CodeSpace platform for micro:bit is now available! Firia Labs’ CodeSpace™ web platform has now launched, it’s an innovative development and learning environment for coding with maker hardware.

UCL ScratchMaths Curriculum | Institute of Education - UCL – University College London Professional development is a key component of the ScratchMaths curriculum as it encompasses not only the learning content but also a particular pedagogical approach, which we call the 5Es and is described briefly below. Ideally, all teachers will have the opportunity to participate in the ScratchMaths PD events organised by one of our partners who have been involved in the project for several years and are experienced in providing PD sessions that appropriately prepare teachers to deliver ScratchMaths within their classrooms. In you are interested in attending ScratchMaths PD please get in contact with your nearest ScratchMaths PD provider. Explore Learning through exploration enables pupils to deal with different constraints and ambiguity through employing skills such as iterative thinking, problem solving and creativity. Explain A crucial aspect of understanding ideas is being able to explain what has been learned and articulating the reasons behind a chosen approach. Envisage Exchange

Vad behöver elever egentligen lära sig om programmering? Att bli duktig på att tänka i kod och programmering handlar väldigt lite om hakparenteser, måsvingar, syntax eller kod överhuvudtaget. Blockprogrammeringen som används i Scratch räcker långt. Snart är det sommarlov, men när skolan börjar igen är det till en delvis ny grundskola lärare och elever återvänder. För att hjälpa landets alla pedagoger har vi på Internetstiftelsen startat Digitala lektioner, en webbtjänst full med kostnadsfritt lektionsmaterial tätt knutet till just den nya läroplanen. Viktigast att kunna tänka programmering Jag sitter själv med en pusselbit – sex lektioner om digital kompetens och programmering för högstadiets matte- och teknikämnen som ska publiceras innan sommarlovet. Jag startade våra Barnhack här på Internetstiftelsen redan för fem år sen. Blockprogrammering har framtiden för sig Det är helt sant att den som ska arbeta som programmerare i framtiden måste kunna koda mer än Scratch eller blockprogrammering.
