  • The aim was to keep children engaged while they are learning programming, which can be frustrating
  • he developed the game because there is a lack of qualified instructors to teaching computer science below college level in a way that is accessible
  • emergent use of code to surmount challenges of one's own making is an act that fits our definition of exploratory play
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • analysed how 30 successful programmers learnt their trade.  They found that activities had to be structured by the person who is trying to learn and that learning must be creative and exploratory as well as 'sticky' -- successful programmers would spend hours and hours coding

    "A team of computer scientists has developed a videogame called CodeSpells that teaches people how to code in Java."

    "Education scientist Sugata Mitra tackles one of the greatest problems of education -- the best teachers and schools don't exist where they're needed most. In a series of real-life experiments from New Delhi to South Africa to Italy, he gave kids self-supervised access to the web and saw results that could revolutionize how we think about teaching."

    Sugata Mitra's "Hole in the Wall" experiments examine what students can self learn with computer technology.

ICT student movie movie making literacy Teacher Resource digital storytelling digital literacy

  • But beyond that againg there is the ideas of student centered learning. The kids are creating personal, meanigful things not another task set by the teacher. The teacher is acting merely as the facilitator, guiding the learning to a deeper place. The ownership of the product gives the students motivation and a greater sense of enjoyment which always enhances learning. In my role as teacher for this project I introduced the idea, showed them some simple concepts and ten basically handed it over to them, always assisting when needed and giving guidance when appropriate
  • Creative expression is one of if not the most iportant part of life.  Humans have a desire to create and if we can use ICT to better enable children to do that while effectivly communicating their creations to others than that is fantastic.

    Awesome blog post on Movie making and literacy skills. Some great pedagogy happening with this group of students. I really like Kynan's philosophy of letting the students learn rather than intervening with teacher direction. Final cut express is a rather complicated piece of software but it looks like these kids have eaten it for breakfast

  • Just as we now live in public, so do we think in public. And that is accelerating the creation of new ideas and the advancement of global knowledge.
  • Having an audience can clarify thinking. It’s easy to win an argument inside your head. But when you face a real audience, you have to be truly convincing.
  • Once thinking is public, connections take over
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • children who didn’t explain their thinking performed worst. The ones who recorded their explanations did better
  • The things we think about are deeply influenced by the state of the art around us: the conversations taking place among educated folk, the shared information, tools, and technologies at hand
  • FAILED NETWORKS KILL IDEAS. BUT SUCCESSFUL ONES TRIGGER THEM.

    An article adapted from Clive Thompson's book 'Smarter Than You Think', an exploration of being connected, as well as the impact and inflence this has on our thinking.

    Most networks are prohibited to children under 13 years old. Many young people still fill their profile with fake birth dates ... Do not accept it and watch your child. In case of problems, if you request social networks (for example for the deletion of data), you will be asked for an identity card to prove that you own the account. If the information does not match, such as age, the site may refuse to cooperate.
