It’s pretty exciting: we’ll soon be ready to begin our introduction to computer programming! But first, we need to be sure that we’ve got a common understanding of the many terms we’ll use to describe the great new concepts and ideas we’ll encounter.
Today, students worked with partners to brainstorm definitions of the glossary terms we’ve accumulated in class so far. Eventually, these “informal” definitions will be combined with “formal” definitions (drawn from a variety of authoritative Web sources) to create a Class Glossary that will be posted live on the Web. And to give us the tools we need for that live posting, we looked at three kinds of HTML lists: ordered, unordered, and definition.
Our classes went by quickly, as students worked to answer the musical question, Can you hear what I’m saying?
