The Finch is a new robot for computer science education. Its design is the result of a four year study at Carnegie Mellon's CREATE lab. The Finch is made to easily integrate into high school and college CS courses. Institutions piloting the Finch have shown improved retention and year-over-year enrollment growth in their CS1 courses.

Seeking K-12 teachers for study on learning App Inventor http://t.co/2c4Y487J via @zite

"Few subjects will open as many doors for students in the 21st century as computer science (CS). The Oracle Academy provides resources to help awaken and deepen student interest in this important field of study."

The two teachers, Betsy and Chinma, have been working together to create a course curriculum that will be implemented in their high school classrooms. Our goal is to expose high students (i.e. CS zero students) to Computer Science using App Inventor. The App Inventor curriculum should excite the students and therefore encourage them to continue studying Computer Science. We hope that this curriculum will become the catalyst that spurs students to attend college and major in Computer Science.

For storing big projects, you need tons of storage space. If you are studying fields like filmmaking, animation or photography then you need to go for external storage. In this tutorial, we are giving you some tips for buying appropriate external hard drive.

Here's a trick question: How do we get people to understand programming?

Only in a CS classroom...
