Carrying on from what we were doing on 18/1/2020, If anyone is interested in the Hour Of Code activity, we can have a go at that too.

More Scratch 3.0 coding, which is great and a good starting point before moving on to other programming languages.

Code Club 18/1/2020 Write up

Today at Code Club we had 8 attendees, which is a really good So we had more scratch, and did some more work on the website project.

There was some interest in Micro:bits but not that much. This is something for future sessions. Or even a dedicated session at the library for this. Which may work better.

I also trying and get a Lego Mindstorms Robot built, but this takes time.

We also had Lucy, from the Tech Jam drop in and this resulted in a few e-mail between myself and Lucy go discuss learning platforms.

Next Code Club is on Saturday 1st February 2020.

Applications for mentoring organizations for this years Google summer of code are now open.

A timeline for the programme is available with student applications starting in March. This should give time for people to research any projects they want to help, learn additional software for example before starting.

Please use the contact details here to find out more information.

E-safety Website

As I have been attending seminars on e-safety, I decided to try and collate some of what I have been learning and combine this with some of my knowledge of programming websites such as:-

  • Scratch
  • Repl.it

My idea is to try and develop a resource which lists benefits, potential risks of using these websites. As these sites have a collaborative element to them.

This is still work in progress, but getting there slowly. I am using the programming website repl.it for this project.

Hopefully, I can eventually share this with people. The benefits of being able to ask for help and have other programmers help you are clear.

I hope through this project that I can share my experience and help others stay safe, ask question in the right way and consider responses to those questions carefully.

I would also hope this demonstrates, some of the skills I am learning and helps me gain meaningful employment.

The first Code Club of 2020 went really well. Today we were up to six. So people are starting to come back after the Christmas Holiday.

Today, we undertook some more work on the website that we have been working on. We also undertook an hour of code activity, my aim is to try and get lots of people having a go at this, you get a certificate at the end.

More Scratch 3.0 coding, which is great and a good starting point before moving on to other programming languages.
