Today in our middle school computer programming class I’ll be showing students some advanced scripts for sprite movement in our “Maze projects,” which 1 of my Casady 5th graders taught me a couple years ago!

Just read a piece on concepts through .

Are you aware of any such novel arts/tools that can act as a "medium" for teaching and learning programming?

Kindly share in your networks for exposure.

When I started graduate school 20 years ago I was inspired by the idea of (particularly diSessa's notion) because I felt "seen" in how I experienced coding and problem solving. I still love the idea, but it is a struggle to see how divergent the definitions remain, and how inconsistent. Also, I wrestle with a desire to recognize it everywhere, and the way some definitions seem to water it down excessively. More work to be done!
