I started a gofundme to create a unique learning opportunity for students in my classroom. I want to teach them how to design and make 3d adaptive aids to assist those with fine and gross motor difficulties, including themselves. Please consider donating! https://t.co/7a9dpAga63
This is great! We are often in so much of a rush to put together lessons that we just copy and paste. It helps to slow down and create something meaningful using our own knowledge. #FRIT7234Summer23
When teaching your students about plagiarism, do you take your own advice and follow the rules? It’s better to use your own words than stealing someone else’s. #FRIT7234Summer23
This week we have been working on pattern recognition in computer science. It helps to take a step back and see how patterns can help us with computational thinking. #FRIT7234Summer23
@YReevesGSU I think my students would enjoy this activity too. They love making silly stories and having the computer assist them in creating the story will be a plus also.
Learning about Abstraction and Decomposition as it relates to computer science and computational thinking has been a fun experience this week. We'll never truly appreciate how much we can skip over just by clicking on an icon on our computer desktop. #FRIT7234Summer23
This is great! I don't know how many times I've put together a word document with screenshots to explain to parents how to get to iReady. This would be a great algorithm to send out at the beginning of the year. #FRIT7234Summer23
I've really enjoyed putting together an infographic to visually represent an algorithm. I chose a social-emotional topic due to the specific need in my classroom. #FRIT7234Summer23
@YReevesGSU This is amazing. My students love computers and creating stories. I can definitely see them enjoying this activity and creating an algorithm! #FRIT7234Summer23
@CodieDickerson I've never thought about classroom procedures being an algorithm. It definitely puts them in a new light. I think one of the first things I'll do next year is have my students create the algorithms for our everyday tasks! #FRIT7234Summer23
This week I've been learning about how precise algorithms are essential to programming. Real-life applications are essential to achieve the desired outcome in your classroom. Help your students visualize all the steps and then find the best solution possible. #FRIT7234Summer23
When teaching children to code, having a hands on experience can really help students understand problem solving and computational thinking. #FRIT7234Summer23
The #SPIKEessential Taxi! Taxi! lesson teaches students how to find and fix errors through testing and sharing experiences with peers. 🚕 https://t.co/gyD8GsJGJ8
@michellejgreen7 I'm excited to incorporate Scratch into my classroom also. My students love anything they can interact with during a lesson. #FRIT7234Summer23
I'm new to learning how to code and this week I'm working on learning how to use Scratch for one of my classes. I figured out how to make basic shapes and I can definitely see how Scratch can effectively incorporate computational thinking into future lessons. #FRIT7234Summer23
I'm starting my first semester of grad school at Georgia Southern. It's been awhile since I've been in school, but I'm excited. I'm going to be diving deep into computational thinking. #FRIT7234Summer23
@BestBuy The order now says it was delivered. I have footage from my security camera and a neighbors security camera that no one ever tried to attempt delivery. I have gotten no answers and no one can tell me when I’m going to receive my $3000 appliance order. Fix this now.
@BestBuy It was not delivered on my original date because of some issue. I was not notified until the 20th. It was rescheduled for the December 4th. They ended up saying they were coming on the December 3rd so I can home from work when they said they would be here.
