Computer Science for Young Minds By: Paul Im

Abstract Limited efforts to educate younger students Goal: to implement computer programming to educate elementary and/or middle school students in math and science. Figure 1: Java logowww.lucidsys.net/lucid_services. htmlwww.lucidsys.net/lucid_services. html

Introduction Every day, technology becomes more advanced and accessible  Little progress made at elementary school level Scope: effective usage of teaching methods and basic programming  Most likely choice for programming language: Scratch Final project: improved curriculum  Expected results: students learn computer programming

Background Computer programming-uses conventional languages for high school Scratch-kid friendly programming language Figure 2: Unofficial Scratch Profile Image

Background cont’d Programs like this done before  2007: Gregory Gates at Cardinal Forest Elementary Figure 3: Cardinal Forest Elementary School computer lab

Development Auxiliary research  Emphasis on teaching methods  Oriented toward elementary school Projects  Ranging from individual to group  Varying levels of intervention

Procedures Curriculum-expanding on predecessor’s ideas  Improvements required Webcam-contacting classroom live from long distance Figure 4: Scratch students at Cardinal Forest Elementary

Timeline October: begincurriculumJune: end ofcourseNovember: usedScratch tocreate programsMay: final projects

Problems Incompatibility  Latest Scratch for Linux: 1.2 Required: 1.3  Few formal sources for Scratch Transportation  No car Timing  Different period

Sample Algorithm Figure 5: Prototype Tutorial Program
