Dear CoderdojoDC Parents, Mentors, and Friends:
The results of yesterday's poll are in! Working with the
http://sortingh.at tool to find technologies to fit their interests, the kids at yesterday's meeting expressed their wishes as follows:
Scratch | 5 |
Python | 5 |
Game Maker | 3 |
Twine | 3 |
Stencyl | 3 |
SQL | 2 |
Unity | 2 |
Minecraft | 2 |
Lego Robotics | 1 |
EV3 Programming | 1 |
App Inventor | 1 |
Ren'py | 1 |
Adventure Game Studio | 1 |
Javascript | 1 |
Arduino | 1
|
Of the top five technologies, Scratch and Twine are already part of the group on a weekly basis, and Python is something we have taught in the past and could easily revive again. Is there anybody on this list who has experience with Game Maker and/or Stencyl who would be willing to lend a hand making activities around these tools happen at a future meeting? Of course, additional helpers for Scratch, Twine, and Python activities are always welcome too.
Also, kids, it's not too late to make your wishes known by going to
http://sortingh.at and sending us your top three choices for topics you'd like to learn about.
Best,
Josh Westgard
