My students are eager to explore the world of coding, and I am looking for a way to make enhance the hands-on approach by adding a visual effect for them. Our students are able to explore the introductory level of computer science but are just able to touch on the subject. A set of Makey Makey devices will help them grasp a better understanding of how things work when coding is involved.
Providing them with this added tool will help them understand computer science and and gain an interest in engineering.
My Project
Technology plays a major role in the classroom and creates innovative ideas that involves new tools and devices. Adding the correct tools will engage the students more and will allow them to see their hard work pay off by applying their hidden talent.
I enjoy creating an environment for my students where they learn how to problem-solve, use their critical thinking skills, and work together to come up with solutions.
These Makey Makey kits will help bring the students' projects alive using Scratch and help them create projects involving distance, music, art, timing, and exploring between logic puzzles. The students will have the opportunity of exploring their imagination by being creative and creating unique projects.
