Where is the next generation of coders?



GMT by Jane wake-field technology reporters A robot can turn their heads 360 degrees, was last updated in management by the Tablet has been developed. Pogrammers these days was 1980s supermodel is to demand is. Municipal Hospital from the Bank on their team wishes everyone specialized. However, because as well as the many jobs rely on computing and coding skills conversely less people to fill them. To stop the crisis of coding needs to be done to persuade dark room, pizza, more youngsters to code than the unsociable hours or something.


Robot friend


Vikas gupta said Google is consumer payments from head answer is start them early. See 2-year-old daughter, anything for the kids wanted. I question can start what age child coding concepts to grasp, "he told BBC. Young children 5 according to MIT learning Mr. gupta, came across a study done via specific interactions, understand the coding concepts.

You can encourage young kids to Bo and Jana code?

"It was eye-opening in my eyes. No products exist due to its age. So can have embarked under the 10-year-old child to design something fun to learn programming, "he said. He also came up with Bo and Jana without realising it, to teach children about programming aimed at two robots. Jana small robots, and making noises, and the can be programmed to perform actions. Bo's robots can be programmed to move around and interact with each other. They can be can be programmed very often hide and seek and Mr. Gupta said.


First child just a variety of games, coding almost recognizes, start by playing with robots. Of moving them to hang your own code to create your Visual programs, such as scratching that has. Robots are controlled wirelessly via both Tablet and Smartphone-the app for iOS devices available only. Crowdfunded project, and hit the target in the $ 250,000 within three days. Plan is start robot sales in the summer of next year. Mr. Gupta also enters the robot school for enthusiastic, committed to the development of a curriculum for those resources.

Technology education

As part of his research, Mr. gupta, was shocked at the State of education in the United States. "Computer science education got worse last 20 years not the better," he said. It seems to bear this 2010 report from the computer science teachers Association. It's more than two-thirds of the States of the United States found little or no computer science standards at the secondary school level. Or computer literacy, computer science ' deep and widespread confusion ' about also what technology education should consist. Reports that the United States "to to prepare students with the skills necessary for basic computer science knowledge had fallen behind a disastrous and future success" and concluded.

1 Day from coding  before their children go to school are accustomed to using technology. It can draw some valuable lessons from Estonia. Only East European country may be small-its population is just 130?-punch undoubtedly it is birthplace of Skype with enviable electronic government program, including several big-name tech companies in its weight on it will be technology.

President - who own a's bit of coding his hand his own University-informed and provide funding for the education goes to see wanted about him, very clear. He was Education Minister Jaak ?????, once a physicist, wants to drag the education system in the age of the computer has a backup. "It's 19 century the rising challenges of the 21 century education how to time the ' tells the BBC he has. As part of the his as soon as possible in the classroom of children 7-year-old coding introduces.


"Children are very talented already do complex things tablets and smart phones on. If you are using then should not when starting school there is no gap. He added that "bringing home children need places such as schools, old style, but to build on the potential. Current initiatives have been tested in next 5 years Mr. ????? expect rollout to all elementary schools. Do not stop coding for 7 years and Estonia's radical education plan.

Quadratic equation math lesson is need an overhaul?

Group 2 March announced the partnership with Oxford-based computerbasedmaths.org to ????_??? how mathematics fundamental to purpose is taught in schools. You need to use mathematics to solve problems that really interest them, and to teach our children when British engineer Conrad, Wolfram group established, get the computer in the complex calculations, there is little point in more creative.


Believe is a basic calculation tables and other learning requires time, beginning, middle school kids get complex calculations of his emphasis is most likely unnecessary and non-students to enable. "It's not dumbing it, is that it becomes difficult. Also it geared towards problem you might want to fix more fun than "he told the BBC.


Quadratic pose lesson, instead of focusing on real-world class computer-based mathematical problem-solving, so questions like "normally I do? "," And beautiful shape "or" I do need a laptop warranty? ?


Estonia will test the system at 30 secondary schools.


"Use math to solve problems as the ideas Toolbox," said Mr ?????. He is also considering ideas to bring their devices to school children. ' May need to prepare many pills and other stuff are not for, "he said.

New language

ICT curriculum in England and Wales is about is replaced with believe Education Minister Michael Gove, ripping one interest from both young people and prepares a world dominated the computer worked better than them. Less emphasis to development than spreadsheets and arguably return to good old-fashioned coding. Wolfram for his part should go more for Gove's plans, and also we can start the rip current math curriculum. "It agenda back to the awesome coding have you think that is attached to the elementary school math coding ' and said he. These changes overnight-, actually he was to reflect the computer age estimates that curriculum change in bed will be 25 years but he finally, hope it will be confident using coding languages, can create a student believes that.
