Teaching Kids To Code Google Tech Talks March, 7 2008 ABSTRACT Learning to code has become both more important and more complicated in the last decade. We need to make it attractive and easy again. Most western countries currently experience a shortage of skilled computing professionals in the employment market. We have seen a similar problem in the 1990s, but this time the situation is different: While the problem in the 90s was university capacity (we just couldn't educate enough people quickly enough), this time around it is enrolment: Universities have the capacity, but not enough students sign up to study technical, computing related subjects, such as computer science or software engineering. The real problem lies before university: at school age, students decide against computing as a subject, because it is perceived as geeky, tedious, intellectually not challenging, and most of all boring. At the same time, programming in schools is on a sharp decline. We need to counter this trend by bringing programming back into schools, and make it an engaging, challenging, relevant and enjoyable activity. To be successful, the public sector, academia and business should work together to make this happen. At the University of Kent, we have developed two successful development environments, named BlueJ and Greenfoot, and educational material to address these challenges. In this presentation, we will discuss both, with the main focus on Greenfoot, a system for beginners to learn Java programming ...

Teaching Danny How To Ride Day 1 Ninja 250r Part 1 We've all been there, whether it's someone teaching us or teaching someone else. It's a beautiful and fulfilling life experience equal to witnessing your child's first steps. We checked out the bike yesterday and he bought it today. It's a Black 2009 Ninja 250r with 2700 miles, PUIG windscreen, Full Yoshi Exhaust System, Disc Lock, Cryptonite Chain, Targa Fender Eliminator, Stage 2 Jet for only $3000 and let me tell you... It sounds AMAZING! The growl is not only deep but LOUD. I was rev happy the entire time I rode it back for him. We took it to a nearby parking lot right away for his first lessons and yes, I recorded everything. When he first sat on my bike two days ago, he was in love. When he first saw his potential future bike yesterday, he was even more in love. When he learned how to ride his bike today, he was at a loss for words. I'm not a MSF teacher so I missed a few things here and there, but eventually caught up. I tried recording as much of my comments as possible, but I forgot a few times in the heat of the battle. He did pretty good since he already knows how to drive manual and understands the way it works. I had a more difficult time since I've never driven manual before and only studied it. We still have a lot more to work on. I need to get him ready for stop and go traffic, more slow turns, U-turns for his road test. Still need to teach him counter-balance, counter-steer, leaning and cornering. I've only been riding for around 2 months, and I know ...

Summarization 6 Reciprocal Teaching Pt 1 Part 1 of 2 In this segment, the teacher begins by modelling for students a process for engaging with text, which creates a framework to move them toward active, independent and deep comprehension of the material. We then watch students, in their guided reading group as they work through the four stages of reciprocal teaching: predicting, clarifying, questioning and summarizing. In this collaborative environment, students lead each other to develop greater understanding of the text through discussion and reflection.

ESL Teaching Tips Here are some quick tips for new ESL teachers. This video focuses on developing a workable lesson plan, in this case, I present a plan for what I found to be a fairly successful introductory lesson for both elementary and middle school. At first, you might be tempted to write out elaborate and detailed plans for your ESL classes, where the lesson plan almost becomes a script to be read, rather than a rough guide. This kind of lesson plan is nearly certain to fail miserably. Flexibility is critical to a good lesson plan. Repetition and variation is needed to help the students retain the information covered in class. Try to design a lesson plan in modules, with each chunk being 5-25 minutes. The most important one should come first, and, with a flexible modular design, if the important lesson runs long, one of the latter modules can be eliminated, or covered during the next class. And remember: languages are not learned by listening to a lecture given in that language; language is acquired by engaging with it, by actively using it. If you only remember one thing, remember this: Your students should be talking far more than you are. ~Kyle Clements

We hope to show how awesome our students are, and how being able to have fun with students like this makes teaching such an awesome job that we feel lucky to have.
