HOUR OF CODE POST
This video is good because it helps you see how that everybody can learn new things. Coding is a new thing for most people and it is very important in the 21st century.
The importance of programming:
We live in a digital world where computers and software are making big changes to how we live.
If we can get a computer to do tasks and solve problems we can make big progress. Coding and programming is the future so we should learn as much as possible and try to improve our computer skills. Programming is about giving the tools to learners so that they can experiment and practise and then create.
Nowadays, many jobs involve information and technology and there are digital solutions for almost everything. You can use GPS to find your way and drones to take photos from the sky....there is no limit! So if you have the skills to use technology to invent and create new things it is fantastic. In my opinion, coding is a skill that all students should learn because it can help in lots of different areas. At school, you can do much better presentations with digital applications. Communication is very important too. Just think of Skype and all the other quick ways we can contact people. Basically I think that there are so many things that have been invented by coders that we just have to try to learn as much as we can. If we don't we will get left behind and become prehistoric.
My experience with SCRATCH
Well, I like the idea of learning how to code and create things like animations on the computer but I don't really like Scratch. In fact, I can't stand it. This is because I have spent loads of time on it and I don't like the results . You need the updated versions on your browser and our computers at home are rubbish- really slow. Maybe its the internet connection. When I thought I had an animation with a cat and a castle with dancers I lost it. I think I need more patience.
Ideas to promote the Hour of Code
I think the Hour of Code is a good idea because it is great to connect and be connected well feel connected with other people doing the same as you. My cousin Lauren is at a school in England where they have CODE BUDDIES. They share what they do with another class, their "Buddies".
I think we could have CODE BUDDIES in different countries and after our code hour we can connect by skype and talk about it. To celebrate it, I think we could have a CODE DAY, just like BOOK DAY or PEACE DAY. This helps everyone know about it. Maybe some shops like Arta Digital could offer a prize for a CODE COMPETITION.
