Learn How to Plan an Hour of Code Today! #CSEdWeek #HourOfCode #CelebratingProgress
It’s you, teachers, who understand the needs and interests of your students and peers. You know how to engage your classes, and which coworkers have been itching to incorporate CS into their own classrooms. Learn how to plan your own Hour of Code and play into your strengths! Hour of Code has a helpful guide for educators interested in planning their own Hour of Code.
Take a look at our participation guide if you still have questions after checking out the steps below:
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
