It’s been a long time since we saw what i:Code 1 class students have been up to! They have been "broadcasting", which is when audio or video content is distributed to a dispersed audience. But the interesting thing is how this can be done in coding. On your mark... Students [...]
You can create art by coding! It’s exciting ! It’s fun! Anyone can do it. Yes, it requires text-based coding, that’s Python for you. But the best part is seeing your code come out beautifully. Every student had an idealistic way of how they wanted turtle to draw [...]
Shadows are these mysterious things that follow us around every time during the day. But why do they change every time, and how are they formed? Let’s see what i:Spy 3 students were able to find out in their study and exploration while making and playing with shadows. [...]
Do you know a fun way to learn the solar system? How about coming up with a creative algorithm for your Bee-bot to take you to your favorite planet? “Take me to my Planet” mission was on! The teams busied with planning and creating their algorithms. Which [...]
Tinker students are pursuing their interests in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) through our exciting curriculum. Let’s take a look inside the classrooms! Tinker STEM explores the world around us. In the Life Science class, students do hands on experiments to test their understanding of science [...]
Colour Coding with a colour sensing robot called Ozobot! It’s not only fun, but it also requires logical reasoning as it uses colour to detect instructions. Our i:Code 2 students learnt the above basic key concepts using the Ozobot. First: Ask and Imagine Students collaborate to give [...]
Why is coding fun at Tinker? Just take a look at how our i:Block 1 students learn in class! They’re learning how to code using Scratch Jr., a programming language for kids. What are students learning with Scratch Jr.? In this class, they learned how to use [...]
What do you do when you have to repeat something over and over again? You probably want to do it once and get it over with. When coding in Python, you might have to repeat a specific task. Is there a way to repeat a task simply in [...]
Can you make a circuit with dough in the shape of the Kenyan flag? Find out how our i:Spy 3 class students made theirs! Step 1: Students learned about conductors and insulators. Step 2: Students made an electric circuit. Step 3: Students used conductive dough and insulating dough to [...]
In Python, there’s a module called “Turtle Graphics” where you can create amazing art! Anything is possible! It's all about which commands you give to the turtle. How our students created artwork on Turtle Graphics! Step 1: They learned the concepts and commands used in Turtle Graphics Step 2: [...]
