During this week, I took notes on paper, in a notebook. Normally, I take notes online via Google Docs or here in Blogger. After taking notes on paper, I didn't take the time that I *thought* I would to bring them to Blogger. We had a full schedule, full of fun activities, exactly what I was hoping for that helped me make the connections between my thoughts, a program with blocks, to a program written in python!
Beyond excited to be at @krausecenter for the Computer Science Crash Course! #csforall pic.twitter.com/YqC6BrabiT— Angie Kalthoff (@mrskalthoff) June 18, 2018
Here are a few highlights:
The inspirational women in the picture above!
Emily Thormforde - http://oneforeachhand.com My gracious host, who I hope to visit again!
Sheena Vaidyanathan - http://www.computersforcreativity.com My insightful teacher, who I hope to learn with again!
Driving to the workshop everyday, thank you EM! One day we found our conversation led to computational thinking related to driving to work in the morning. If everyone would have the same end goal of arriving to work safely versus getting to work in the shortest amount of time possible, think of all the accidents that could be avoided.
Computational Thinking. Thinking like a computer scientist. How do I formulate the problem so it can be solved by a computer?
Example of this thinking
Non-Computational Thinker - Solves problems for one particular instance. Arithmetic.
Creating games with Microbit
I saw by a high school math teacher. We did a lot of pair programming. It was interesting to compare the way we approached problems and design. We created a game that you can play by clicking here!
Creating our initials using logo and python@mrskalthoff and Aaron compete with the board game they designed using the #microbit at the @krausecenter KCI CS Crash course. 2 board designs and one game control center. Who won? pic.twitter.com/5QPngY9Gau— Sheena (@Sheena1010) June 22, 2018
This was my first experience where I sat down and really tried to understand what I was doing while creating in python. I'm very proud of the program I created, so here it is!Working on creating creating our initials in python. One example is from a high school math teacher(not me) the other is from a kteacher(me). Can you guess which one is mine ;) #csforall #kidscancode #csk8 #python #mncodes share your guess by replying!! pic.twitter.com/KuJSu6rCwf— Angie Kalthoff (@mrskalthoff) June 20, 2018
Yay! Created a program in python to make my initials :) #firsttimer #csk8 #kidscancode #csforall pic.twitter.com/pvYo9NxsCc— Angie Kalthoff (@mrskalthoff) June 20, 2018
This was also the first time I created a program in Make Code using a motor to make a fan spin
Ooo la la fancy! Loving the time to tinker with “my” @microbit_edu and motor thanks to @Sheena1010 at @krausecenter Computer Science Crash Course #csforall pic.twitter.com/TtTd486jP0— Angie Kalthoff (@mrskalthoff) June 20, 2018
