Strikingly.Com Single-Page PSA Website Project - Research Day

Today everyone will spend time choosing and researching the topic of their choice for this project.  No two students can work on the same topic.  See yesterday's post for the link to the S1 Topic List.

Create a Google Document to store your information, links, pictures and other items you will need when you begin building your websites next week.


Make sure you check out my Sample PSA Website Here:  (Selfie Sticks Should Be Banned)

Have fun with this project and DO YOUR BEST! Happy Friday!

OBJECTIVE & STUDENT OUTCOMES
Students will use online collaboration tools (STRIKINGLY.COM) to create a single-page webpage.  Students will learn to use the online toolbar in Strikingly.com to add content to their website, share their website, and publish their website online.  Students will comment (positively) on other pages posted.
STUDENTS MUST READ ALL DIRECTIONS ON THIS WEBSITE PRIOR TO STARTING ANY TASK!
 Students will enter the class quietly and LOG IN to ccs.us Google Accounts.  Students will read all directions posted on the class assignment site prior to starting work.  Students will choose a Public Service Announcement topic to create a web-page about using Strikingly.com.  Students will be guided through the creation process for a Strikingly.com website, and then be given time in class to complete the project.  Students must SHARE their projects, once published, by posting the link on Schoology.  Once complete, Students will then review other sites created by their peers, and leave constructive (positive) comments to each other!

Code.Org Accelerated Course S2 17-18

About the Code.org Accelerated Course (International): Excerpt taken directly from https://code.org/educate/curriculum/cs-fundamentals-international Our International Computer Science Fundamentals courses are translated into over 25 languages. The different courses support students aged 4-18. Each course has 10-20 lessons that may be implemented as one unit or over the course of a semester. Students study basic programming concepts and develop interactive games or stories they can share. The courses teach the foundational concepts of programming using drag and drop blocks rather than a programming language such as JavaScript or Python. Blocks are an easier way to get started and can be fully translated into any language. Course 1 uses picture blocks rather than words to support pre-readers. All lessons align to all relevant computer science standards, as well as to the  ISTE standards . They additionally reinforce concepts and skills taught in other subject areas by integrating nationa

This is your chance to turn your coding experience into a holiday project.  Follow the links below to the different activities today.  Enjoy these this week!  - Mr. S Dancing Yeti Project:  Make the Yeti Dance, a digital animation project from Made with Code! https://www.madewithcode.com/projects/ Holiday Emoji Project :  You’re about to design a custom holiday emoji that you can share digitally or IRL. Codecademy is the easiest way to learn how to code. It's interactive, fun, and you can do it with your friends.  Twelve Days of Christmas Code:    Nice, simple implementation of the Twelve Days of Christmas. As  jhixson  puts it, “Pretty straightforward … in JS with a few ES6 bits.” Run it today, there are still a couple of days left! That is of course, assuming the twelfth day of Christmas is actually Christmas, which I believe is out of scope of this blog article.
