I took part in a program called "Hour of Code" that was made to help teach children to code. Personally it was very similar to my past experiences using scratch.It used a system of boxes that Each represented a small part of code, this was made to show the logic behind coding. Upon looking at the actual code it reminded me a lot of my attempts at learning to code in python in my raspberry pi. I think that this did help me understand the logic of programming, but I feel like it was designed for smaller kids. In conclusion I enjoyed this activity a lot but felt like it could be improved.

For this project we used a ti sensor tag to collect data from around the school and place it in a paper.
I did not enjoy this project, the graphs were easy to make and under stand, but using Photoshop for the infografic wad absolutely awful. I can under stand using it for editing a picture, but making something from scratch is simply unreasonable. It is exceedingly difficult to make a simple line. Honestly MS paint would be more efficient for these infografics as many people have it at home, and it is much more user friendly. using the sensor tags was difficult because of the short battery life, and it was hard to find your sensor tag via blue tooth. however I did enjoy the ability to get out of the class room and have a hands on experience with technology. |
