Common Sense Media
Common Sense Media
We use digital media every day, from texting, streaming TV shows, and gaming all the way to using voice assistants or ordering our food online. For today's kids, it's a lot more than just "screen time." So how can we help students balance their online and offline lives? It starts with recognizing just how much media we use.

Events
Computer Science Concepts
Event (n) - An action that causes something to happen. User-generated by keystroke or mouse click. System-generated program loading.
User input - User input is the process of capturing and processing data that users enter through various interfaces. It's a key part of software development and is important for creating interactive applications that are centered around the user.
Values - a basic unit of data that represents an entity that a program can manipulate. Values can be numeric or alphabetic data, such as words, numbers, or expressions.
The Full of Stories skillmap introduces the most common types of code blocks used throughout MakeCode Arcade.
In this set of activities, students will create creative storytelling projects with MakeCode Arcade. This map is intended for students who are new to MakeCode with little or no previous coding experience. Through step-by-step instructions, students will focus on projects that range from greeting cards, to jokes, to full short stories.
