Getting Started with Firefox extension - Diigo help - 0 views

  •  Feature Highlight: Highlights Diigo saves the day with "highlights". Highlights let you select the important snippets on a page and store them in your library with the page's bookmark. Let's try it. Just open a page, maybe one of your old-school bookmarks or one of your new cat bookmarks, and find the information on that page you actually care about. Select that important text. Got it? Okay, now put your helmet on, 'cause this might blow your mind! Click the highlight icon on the Diigo toolbar. It's the one with the "T" on a page with a yellow highlighter. You will notice that the selected text gets a yellow background. This means that the text has been saved in your library, and as long as you have the Diigo add-on the text will be highlighted on the page! How's that for easy?   Now you've highlighted the text. It will appear in your library within the bookmark for the page it is on. Go to your library and you can see how it works. If you're not sure how to get to your library, just click the second icon on the toolbar (Diigo icon to the left of the search bar) and then select "My Library ยป".
  • Sticky Notes on the Web What? I can put a sticky note on a web page? How? Oh, that's right! Diigo. Just right-click anywhere on the page and choose to "add a floating sticky note". Type up your note and choose "Post", then move the note anywhere on the page. You have to type a note first, before you move it where you want, otherwise there's nothing to move!

'CodeSpells' wizard game teaches you how to program in Java (Wired UK) - 10 views

  • 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
