What to do when they've had too much Scratch?
- 1. What to do when they’ve had too much Scratch? Neil Rickus Senior Lecturer in Computing Education, University of Hertfordshire @computingchamps computingchampions.co.uk/serbia2017
- 2. Next 30 minutes • Help alleviate “Death by Scratch” – Focus on concepts – Link in physical computing – Other block based programming environments – Text based programming • bit.ly/death_by_scratch – Phil Bagge blog post
- 3. Focusing on the concepts • At KS2 (7-11 years), pupils need to write programs, which including the following concepts: – Sequencing – Selection (if, then, else) – Repetition – Variables – Inputs / outputs
- 4. Adding additional hardware • Picoboard • WeDo 2.0 • Pibrella • Micro:bit • Makey Makey • SenseHat
- 5. Why physical computing? • Opportunity to develop understanding of programming concepts • “Light bulb” moment! • Links to other areas of the curriculum – Science and DT, but many others • Solve real world problems – Not just “making a game today” – Engaging to girls – casinclude.org.uk
- 6. More physical computing • See my other presentation…. • computingchampions.co.uk/serbia2017
- 9. Picoboard / Lego WeDo 2.0 • Picoboard – Cost - £40 board and connectors – More info - www.picocricket.com/picoboard.html • Lego WeDo 2.0 – Cost – £130 core set and software – More info – education.lego.com/wedo2.0
- 11. Pibrella / micro:bit • Pibrella (for use with a Raspberry Pi) – Cost - £10 board (+ £30 for the Raspberry Pi) – More info - pibrella.com • micro:bit – Cost – £13 board; £16 starter kit – More info – microbit.org
- 14. SenseHat • Sensehat (part of Astro Pi - astro-pi.org) – Cost – £25 board – More info – www.raspberrypi.org/products/sense-hat/ – N.B. Emulator available on Raspberry Pi • Gyroscope; Accelerometer • Magnetometer • Temperature • Barometric pressure; Humidity
- 16. Makey Makey / • Makey Makey – Cost - £40 board – More info - makeymakey.com – Example projects - vimeo.com/60307041
- 17. Block based programming environments • Snap • Kodu • Minecraft (part of Kano) • Tickle – Physical devices, including drones
- 23. Reinforcing concepts • Hour of Code – code.org • Light Bot • Code Combat • bit.ly/gridofapps2016
- 25. Moving to text based programming • Tickle • Alice • Swift Playgrounds • Logo • Sonic Pi • Python
- 30. Don’t forget the rest of the curriculum • Select, use and combine a variety of software (including internet services) on a range of digital devices to design and create a range of programs, systems and content that accomplish given goals, including collecting, analysing, evaluating and presenting data and information • Computer networks • Search engines • E-safety
