Block code designed for children ages 8 to 16.
Very quickly you can learn to create your own stories, games, tests and much more.
You can animate, create music, speech from text, input from keyboard or camera...
A language used in the workplace, not just schools.
Huge capacity, does all sorts of things.
Use trinket rather than downloading the software.
More freedom and control than Block Code languages. Some things are easier, some things are harder, it all depends what you are wanting to code.
Which language is the best?
Which language is the best?
It depends what you are doing. For example, you can create animated stories in scratch very quickly. These would take forever using python. However, you may want to do something that can not be achieved easily (or at all) in scratch, which is easy to do in python.
Learning lots of different programming languages allows you to build up your knowledge, so that you can choose the best tool for the job.
Mathematics & Coding
Mathematics & Coding
When using DESMOS you can build up animated images, which is a very similar way of thinking to coding.
Creating self marking math tests using python or scratch allows you to think deeply about mathematics and coding. By testing your tests, you can practice your basic skills.
