When Kickstarters Fail [Feature] - 1 views

  •  
    "Kickstarter, though potentially an incredible platform, is no magic bullet. The effort required to put up a good project is substantial and many projects have no reasonable chance of success without weeks of work by the project's creators."

ScratchJr: Coding for Young Kids by Mitchel Resnick - Kickstarter - 2 views

  •  
    "ScratchJr is an introductory programming language that enables young children (ages 5-7) to create their own interactive stories and games. Children snap together graphical programming blocks to make characters move, jump, dance, and sing. Children can modify characters in the paint editor, add their own voices and sounds, even insert photos of themselves - then use the programming blocks to make their characters come to life."

    Thanks for sharing this link John. I have recorded my interest with the developers to keep me informed. I love using Scratch with my grade 4s. As you'd know - the new Digital Technologies curric emphasises programming, so Scratch Jr will be a welcome addition. Seems as though currics around the world are picking up on kids programming.

The Micro 3D printer tops $1M on Kickstarter in one day - CNET - 0 views

  •  
    "The cute, little, Micro 3D printer appears to be a very hot commodity. Touting it as "the first truly consumer 3D printer," the team behind The Micro, M3D, has worked to design an easy-to-use, low-cost, 7-inch tall printer. The device can print smaller items, such as a vase, custom cookie cutters, or cat toys. The Micro can auto-level and auto-calibrate and will also work with open-source software for more advanced users."

    "In case you hadn't heard, the internet erupted in an explosion of outrage last week after Facebook announced it will acquire the company behind the Oculus Rift headset for approximately $2 billion. For a vision that humbly began as a Kickstarter-funded project, that's good news for Oculus; but is it good news for the rest of the world?"
