Programming With Blocks Syntax is a royal pain in the neck for beginning programmers. For a lot of kids learning computing or programming syntax is the single largest hurtle. It’s hard to teach both a new (programming) language and a new way of thinking and problem solving at the same time. What I find is that tastes are different. All of these tools have some great features and either university or private research behind the development. GP is a free, general-purpose blocks programming language (similar to MIT's Scratch) that is powerful yet easy to learn. Alice Alice is a 3-d environment from Carnegie Mellon. Kodu is a coding environment originally developed by Microsoft Research for the Xbox 360 but now also available for Windows PCs. TouchDevelop is a little different from the rest.

Innovative ways to get kids coding By Laura Devaney, Managing Editor, @eSN_Laura Read more by Laura Devaney Coding grows in popularity as advocates show students the fun side of programming Along with an increased call for more science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) funding is a movement to boost computer science’s visibility, due in part to the demand for qualified educated computer science professionals to fill a growing number of vacant spots in the field. Computer science fields, including coding and computer programming, are some of the fastest-growing field. But coding and computer science still struggle to attract women.

Cargo-Bot 4 Ways To Teach Computing To A New Generation Of Kids Programming conferences are unlikely places to find teachers. But at the recent PyCon UK conference, in the Coventry Technocentre owned by Coventry University, teachers and programmers were working together and sharing their relative expertise. Why? Because they care deeply about teaching computing to young people. The UK government recently mandated that computer science be taught in British schools as a replacement for the much maligned IT curriculum that taught basic (and severely outdated) secretarial skills, with not much room for anything else. This has resulted in an explosion of innovative ways to teach computing to kids and teenagers. Python Few programming languages are quite so well suited for teaching beginners and children as Python. Python is a language that embraces simplicity and readability, and the Python developer community is infamous for being welcoming, conscientious and helpful. Raspberry Pi They’re cheap too, costing a paltry $25. Minecraft Or, is it? Scratch
Gamestar Mechanic Making Games: The Ultimate Project-Based Learning Gamestar Mechanic Part 6 of MindShift’s Guide to Games and Learning. As game-based learning increases in popularity, it’s easy to get pigeon-holed into one particular way of thinking about it or one way of employing it. This is true regardless of how teachers feel about gaming in the classroom, whether they’re for or against it. One common objection to game-based learning is that students will sit in front of screens being taught at. In previous posts in this series, I’ve argued that because games involve systems thinking, they contextualize learning. “Games are just simulators with an internal incentive structure (often dopamine based). However, virtual simulations of hands-on experience are not the same as tangibly engaging with the world. Fortunately, few people are calling for games to replace school as we know it. Just as there are many apps and platforms designed to teach kids coding, there are also many apps and platforms that make it easy for kids to design their own games.
