Previously I have detailed 8 Reasons Why Kids Should Learn Code. If those reasons inspired you to start a Coding Club at your school this short guide will help turn that inspiration into action. Details are discussed following the list.

7 Steps to Start a Coding Club

1. Discuss

Talk to the tech savvy students and find out if any students are already learning programming. Have a meeting with these students and see which programs they could help you use to teach others.

2. Introduce

Run a few lunchtime introductory sessions, in which you:

3. Environment

Choose the learning environment that suits your school and students.

4. Time

Give time for exploration and creativity.

5. Share

Share resources that will help students create with the program.

6. Challenge

Set some challenges to solve with the program.

7. Expand

Have students share what they are creating and run sessions in which they teach others.

Options and Resources

On Computers:

would be the ideal starting point on computers. Its adaptability means that it can be used with students of various ages and skill levels. Young students can use Scratch, as long as they are reading. There are an abundance of resources available to teach and learn Scratch. The Scratch Curriculum Guide is fantastic starting point, as are the video tutorials, and the Scratch Cards. The Debugger challenges have students work out the bugs in Scratch programs and the 10 Block Challenge has students create a Scratch using 10 pre assigned blocks.

For students who are above 10 years old or have more experience I would suggest introducing them to MIT App Inventor, Codecademy and Khan Academy. All include tutorials and support resources. With MIT APP Inventor students can build Android apps in a drag and drop environment that is similar to Scratch. With Codecademy and Khan Academy there are a range of step by step interactive tutorials that teach some of the most commonly used programming languages.

On iPads:

I would recommend using a combination of the problem solving apps, similar to the move the turtle style programming environments, and the creation apps. There are many problem solving games out there for iPad but my favourites are Daisy the Dino for very young students, Kodable for early to middle age groups, and Cargo-Bot for the older students.

Hopscotch: When it comes to creating and learning some programming concepts on the iPad Hopscotch is the number one choice. Have students rebuild the Frogger or Paddle Board games, that come preloaded on Hopscotch, or challenge them to program their character to draw a house.

SketchNation allows students to create Doodle Jump/Flappy Bird style games in a simple step by step fashion with their own sketches.

allows students to create high quality games in the side scrolling, think Mario, and top down, think Space Invaders, styles.

Edutopia is one of my favourite educational web resources . Today while I was checking its Five Minute Film Festival page I came across a link that took me to their YouTube channel where I found a treasure trove of interesting videos on digital citizenship and because digital citizenship is one of the important themes in this blog, I decided to handpick some of the clips that grabbed my attention and share them with you below , you can also check the entire list here.

But before that, let me share with you this concise and to-the-point definition that Amy gave to digital citizenship :

"Digital citizenship" is an umbrella term that covers a whole host of important issues. Broadly, it's the guidelines for responsible, appropriate behavior when one is using technology. But specifically, it can cover anything from "netiquette" to cyberbullying; technology access and the digital divide; online safety and privacy; copyright, plagiarism, and digital law, and more. " for more resources check out this page.

Aprender escrever letras manuscritas, agora é mais fácil, simples e divertido com a ajuda de aplicações educativas desenvolvidas a pensar na estimulação e bem-estar das crianças.

Quando as crianças entram para o primeiro ano, a escola passa a ser a sério. Todos os dias se aprende uma coisa nova, e tanto as crianças como os seus pais têm de se adaptar a novas rotinas, novos compromissos, novos desafios... Aprender escrever letras manuscritas é um deles!

As letras têm de ser aprendidas, desenhadas e normalmente são o epicentro dos trabalhos de casa, ou melhor, das dores de cabeça dos pais e dores de barriga dos filhos.

A boa notícia é que a tecnologia pode trazer um pouco de tréguas a este treino e aliar aos trabalhos um pouco de divertimento e motivação.
Sugerimos três aplicações educativas para treinar a caligrafia:
1- A app Cursive Writing Wizard é a nossa favorita, uma verdadeira aplicação cinco estrelas.

Aplicação personalizavel, onde a criança pode aprender escrever letras manuscritas, iguais às que aprende na escola com diferentes níveis de dificuldade (tamanho da letra, tipo de reforço e modelo).

Com esta app, é possível treinar desenhos, escrever letras maiúsculas, letras minúsculas, números até 9 e palavras.

Os pais podem gravar o nome e som de cada letra em qualquer língua, criar listas de palavras trabalhadas no caderno e verificar o progresso da criança ao longo da prática através de relatórios muito pormenorizados e visuais.

Os professores podem criar perfis individuais para cada aluno e assim criar momentos de aprendizagem direcionada para as necessidades específicas de cada um.

Sempre que escreve, a "tinta" da caneta é diferente e cativante.

Todas as crianças simplesmente adoram!

Esta app está disponível na AppStore.

Se quiser saber mais sobre uma app semelhante, para o treino de letras de imprensa, clique aqui.

2 - Aplicação educativa para treino da caligrafia em francês.

Esta aplicação é visualmente muito apelativa e oferece diferentes graus de ajuda.

Tem no entanto o inconveniente de ser em francês (não é personalizavel, o educador terá que colocar o som off) e de nem todas as letras serem iguais às trabalhadas em Portugal.

Esta app está disponível na AppStore.

3 - Aplicação " Escrever o Alfabeto " que oferece para além do treino de letras, jogos de entretenimento educativo.

App que vale a pena, apesar de estar disponível apenas em Inglês!

Para além da opção de treino caligráfico, a app oferece na versão paga, dois jogos. O primeiro de rapidez e estratégia e o segundo de atenção e associação dos diferentes tipos de letra ( maiúscula, minúscula, imprensa e manuscrita).

Para saber mais sobre esta app, clique aqui
Dica
Já existem muitos tipos de caneta para iPad, adquira uma para o treino se aproximar o mais possível ao treino do caderno. E não se esqueça, para evitar maus hábitos posturais, coloque sempre o iPad na posição vertical!

Bons treinos e votos de muito sucesso neste primeiro ano de escola.

We recently published a blog post with 12 of the Best Apps for Students which has helped a lot of our students get out of bed in the morning, stay focused and more. However, educational technologyis not just for students; teachers can also benefit greatly from the use of new technologies. So this week we've scoured the net looking for the top 10 apps for teachers.

10 Apps for Teachers

Do you think the hum of student chatter is too high when working in class? Too Noisy helps you control the background noise that exists in your classroom using visuals and in real-time. You set the appropriate level of noise and if your class rise above this level, an alarm will sound. Quiet please!

Remind101 is a free app designed specifically for teachers. Using this popular app, teachers can send notices and announcements to parents and students. This is nothing new but the real benefit of Remind101 is that teachers do not need to reveal their phone number or any other personal information to communicate with parents or students. Similarly, teachers do not have access personal details of the recipients. The emphasis on privacy is a real strength of Remind101.

ClassDojo is a classroom tool that helps teachers improve behavior in their classrooms quickly and easily. It also captures and generates data on behavior that teachers can share with parents and administrators. You can give feedback, encouragement and view data and reports on your students behavior using the app.

GradeBook Pro is one of the most comprehensive apps to help you manage your class. It allows you to monitor attendance but you can also add all kinds of annotations on your students to allow you to record the evolution of your students' performances throughout the course. GradeBook may be the best ally for your memory, unfortunately it's not free.

App #5: Teacher's Assistant Pro 2

Teacher's Assistant Pro 2 is great alternative to the previous app. It offers a multitude of functions to manage your class. Among the most interesting is the possibility to follow the evolution of a student's behavior. You can also store student's personal information such as address, siblings and even if they have allergies. These features can greatly facilitate generating feedback reports to students' parents.

Educreations transforms your iPad into a digital whiteboard, giving you a space to draw plus you can share all your creations with your students in real-time. Also, if you prefer, you can add audio to your creations and use them as teaching tools. Say goodbye to chalk!

Podcast is an app that allows access to thousands of podcasts (audio recordings). With Podcast you can create your own station to upload your audio lessons which you think are appropriate for your students to download. The great things about Podcasts is that students can listen to them whenever they want, as many times as they want and at their own pace.

Note: Although this app is only available for Apple iOS, there are similar apps for Android devices.

App #8: TED

Need inspiration for your next class? TED is your answer. TED presents talks from some of the world's most fascinating people on all kinds of subjects. All these conferences are available for free on the app. You never know, you could be the next speaker to give a talk at TED!

Yes, we know, it can be very difficult to retain all the different formulas. But no need to panic! With Math Formulas you have a collection of hundreds of mathematical formulas from algebra to matrices, trigonometry to geometry at your disposal.

Note: Although this app is only available on Android, similar apps are also available to download on Apple products.

We have saved the most important for last! ExamTime is a meeting place between teachers and students in which you can share study resources, work on group projects and initiate discussion threads and debates.

ExamTime's tools allow you to create multiple resources such as Mind Maps, Flashcards, Quiz Maker and Interactive Notes. It's designed to help you increase classroom participation, brainstorming and memorization. Try it for free now!

Education-there's an app for that. In fact, there are hundreds of thousands of apps on the market designed for teaching and learning. As more schools bring tablets into the classroom, educators like Genia Connell are finding that apps are game changers.

"I have yet to see anything in education that generates excitement and motivates students the way tablets do," says the third-grade teacher from Leonard Elementary School in Troy, Michigan. Connell points to e-reading apps like Storia that not only engage students but also level the playing field for struggling readers. "Differentiation has become easier with apps because so many of them have built-in levels of complexity."

By many accounts, some of the most powerful education apps are used for teaching reading and supporting differentiation for students with disabilities. But their capabilities are endless. Developers have created easy-to-use programs that serve as learning platforms for students and as organization tools for teachers. Here are 50 fabulous apps that are helping to change the face of education.

Finding apps isn't difficult. Finding education apps is only a bit more challenging. Finding free education apps is also possible. Finding free education apps worth downloading is a different story entirely.

The following is our list for the 55 best apps for learning we can find. Some are formal learning-math drilling and phonics, for example-while others are RSS readers, social media platforms, and the like. These are purposely not all purely academic, "training" apps that focus on individual skills, but rather the an array of apps students could use daily to improve their ability to think, connect, and use information.

A few notes:

1. Some may require in-app purchases, but we tried to limit these. We also tried to limit how many "lite/free" versions of more robust paid apps we included. We wanted the list to be as truly free as possible for you to use.

2. Some of these we included a brief statement of why you should use the app, while others we included developer commentary.

3. They are numbered, but are in no certain order.

4. We tried to included a wide variety of apps. It might be that 25 of the best 50 are phonics instruction, but we didn't want the list dominated by any single grade level or content area.

5. We've got an Android version coming in the next few days.

Global connectivity, smart machines, and new media are just some of the drivers reshaping how we think about work, what constitutes work, and the skills we will need to be productive contributors in the future. This report analyzes key drivers that will reshape the landscape of work and identifies key work skills needed in the next 10 years. It does not consider what will be the jobs of the future. Many studies have tried to predict specific job categories and labor requirements. Consistently over the years, however, it has been shown that such predictions are difficult and many of the past predictions have been proven wrong. Rather than focusing on future jobs, this report looks at future work skills-proficiencies and abilities required across different jobs and work settings.

Ferramentas de edição de vídeo grátis te permitem cortar e editar sequências de vídeo sendo gratuitas e bastante simples de aprender e usar, ao contrário de outros serviços mais caros como o Adobe Premiere, Final Cut ou o Avid Editing suite.

Aliás, tudo o que a maioria dos usuários de vídeo quer é fazer apenas algum rápido ajuste a última cena de um vídeo ou adicionar um título de sobreposição ao início de sua última obra-prima. Agora estas operações em hardware que costumavam ser complicadas podem ser realizadas em softwares gratuitos e ferramentas baseadas na Web, a um custo zero e com ações simples de arrastar e soltar.

Por isso, se você está buscando por ferramentas simples, descomplicadas, de edição de vídeo e ferramentas básicas de titulação, existem muitas opções no mercado que podem atender as suas necessidades.

As ferramentas de edição de vídeo podem ser divididas em duas categorias principais:

1. Software: Essas ferramentas de edição de vídeo devem ser baixadas e instaladas no seu computador. Você não precisa ter uma conexão de internet para usar esses serviços e o resultado final é salvo localmente em seu disco rígido.

2. Baseadas na web: Essas ferramentas de edição de vídeo funcionam direto do seu navegador, tirando partido da potência do plugin Flash Player para isso. Não são necessários downloads ou plug-ins adicionais. Alguns serviços de edição de vídeo baseados na web permitem o download de seu vídeo finalizado, enquanto outros apenas permitem que você compartilhe seus vídeos na web ou no seu próprio site.

Dê uma olhada em algumas das características essenciais dessas ferramentas de edição de vídeo grátis:

Facilidade de uso: Operações de arrastar e soltar e um acesso rápido a todas as funções essenciais. Facilidade de importação, edição e gravação do trabalho final.

Edição básica: As ferramentas de edição de vídeo geralmente fornecem todas as funcionalidades básicas de edição, incluindo divisão do clip, corte, recorte, rotação, redimensionamento, zoom, bem como outras funcionalidades populares para a produção de vídeo.

Uso da linha do tempo: As ferramentas de edição de vídeo funcionam utilizando uma linha do tempo, uma interface visual que mostra visualmente o conteúdo do seu vídeo ao lado de uma referência de tempo para facilitar a navegação e o trabalho de edição.

Você também encontrará tabelas comparativas e análises individuais para melhor analisar todas estas ferramentas de edição de vídeo grátis. Os critérios adicionais que selecionados incluem:

Plataforma: Sistema operacional suportado.

Formatos de entrada: Tipos de arquivos de Vídeo suportados no modo de leitura.

Formatos de saída: Tipos de saída de vídeo de arquivo compatíveis.

Efeitos especiais: Apoio para transições e efeitos especiais.

Titulação: Funcionalidade para adicionar títulos de texto.

Suporte a 16:9: Suporte ao novo formato de vídeo 16:9.

Desentrelaçar: Característica que permite fusão automática de campos pares e ímpares de seu material de vídeo para se livrar de linhas horizontais inoportunas que aparecem no interior dos vídeos MPEG.

Aqui estão todos os detalhes:

Ferramentas Para Edição De Vídeo Gratuitas

1. RichFLV

RichFLV é um programa gratuito de edição básica de vídeo que permite que você trabalhe em seus arquivos de vídeo FLV. Baseado na plataforma Adobe AIR, RichFLV pode ser instalado tanto em Windows, Mac e Linux. O software só aceita arquivos de vídeo FLV como entrada, mas pode salvar seus clipes editados, tanto para formatos de vídeo FLV quanto para SWF. RichFLV também pode gerenciar arquivos de imagem JPEG e PNG para misturar com o fluxo de vídeo. O software tem suporte total para 16:9 e a resolução de vídeo permite cortar precisamente seus arquivos de vídeo FLV, marcadores específicos que identificam porções separadas de seus clipes. Sem efeitos especiais ou transições disponíveis, também não é possível desentrelaçar seus vídeos.

But besides the basic features, there are lots of little tricks and hacks you can use to make your Google Docs experience even more productive.

2. Privacy: You can choose to have documents published publicly or privately.

3. Share, don't email: Instead of emailing docs back and forth, type in email addresses of people you'd like to share your Google document with, and they'll be sent an editable, web copy. This also ensures you're always working on the same document.

4. Make changes at the same time: You and your classmates can log into the same document at the same time to make edits.

5. Share a folder: Share entire groups of documents saved in a single file with coworkers and students.

9. Allow people to edit without signing in: This means anyone, even if they don't have a Google account, can sign in and edit your piece.

10. Remove collaborators: If you want to take someone off a project, click None next to the name of the person you want to remove.

11. Forum: If you get stuck with a docs problem, you can head over to the forums and find help from other users.

12. Change ownership: Switch ownership of Google docs as project leaders change.
