Christopher Michaud, Nebo Elementary
Tuesday, 6/30/2009, 11:00am–12:00pm WWCC 150 B
Christopher used his expertise with working with elementary students to help us digital immigrants how to use the free open source program called SCRATCH that allows students to create games, simulations, and tell stories through computer science and programming. The main information for this presentation is located at http://nebomusic.net/necc2009BYOL.html.
Check out Chris' link at http://nebomusic.net/Polygon_Step_By_Step.html which has the directions for creating a shape painter program in SCRATCH.
This is such an amazing and "tangible" way to teach math, logic and technological fluency! I think this activity alone could incorporate so many of the NJ State Standards.
