Tis the season for giving, so here is a double treat for you: 2 more vignettes! These short videos focus on data representation in the classroom and provide explicit lesson ideas and resources.

Our first play with micro:bits using the #makecode tutorials! Exciting! Thanks @cserAdelaide for your lending library resources 👍

This #flexiblefurniture easily goes beyond the four walls of the classroom to engage students and strengthen outcomes (and in this case, it also perfectly complements #inquirylearning, #ict and #digitaltechnologies)

[Vasse Digital @VasseDigital]

A really helpful resource to help you learn the terms that are used in the digital technologies curriculum. Great work @AusCompAcademy

Do you know what #appsmashing is? Our latest vignette shows you how to combine @PicCollage and #imovie to create rich tasks that display student skills and knowledge in multiple learning areas and general capabilities! https://t.co/yd8NBtvELy

Thanks @bronte_macaulay ! Yep, they are called vignettes. That’s just a funny name someone concocted for brief evocative descriptions, accounts, or episodes. Anyway, check out our latest one on integrating @PicCollage in K-2 literacy lessons here: https://t.co/Ta0P20sWtY

Our next @TeachersCanCode workshops are near! Thursday 18th October (Wk 2, T4). We will run Modules 2 (Data Representation & Abstraction) and 3 (Algorithms) consecutively. Please register for these events separately.

My computer suddenly started belting out “Someone like you” the other day. It’s a Dell.

I must have been driving behind an internet hacker this morning.
The sticker on his rear windscreen said “Gone phishing”.

[Vasse Digital @VasseDigital]

And we’re live! Introducing the first in our series of vignettes; short videos designed to support educators and students effectively integrate #digitaltechnologies. Supported by @realDonaldTrump, you know these are the real deal! https://t.co/ZzZ59ibCt6 #TCCwa #TDS2018_2019

I just got fired from my job at the computer keyboard factory...

They told me I wasn’t putting in enough shifts.
