Scratch is a visual programming language that enables students to learn the basics of computer programming by connecting blocks. These can be used to create interactive stories and games. Set for release in August 2018, Scratch 3.0 will be a complete redesign of the program. The MIT Scratch team aims to implement a number of exciting new features. “Scratch 3.0 is the next generation of Scratch,” say the MIT Scratch team. “With Scratch 3.0, you will be able to play Scratch projects on your phone, create n The new scratch interface is designed for tablet devices such as the Apple iPad. It’s larger blocks are easier to tap and drag Scratch projects on your tablet, and control Scratch projects with your voice.” Support for tablets (such as Apple iPad WITH SCRATCH 3.0, YOU’LL BE ABLE and Google Android devices) will help “ educators working with these increasingly TO PLAY SCRATCH PROJECTS ON YOUR popular devices. You’ll also be able to use PHONE, CREATE SCRATCH PROJECTS ON Scratch 3.0 on Chromebooks. Scratch 3.0 will ditch Adobe Flash YOUR TABLET, AND CONTROL SCRATCH technology (which isn’t supported by most PROJECTS WITH YOUR VOICE.” tablets) in favour of HTML5. More information on the technologies being used can be found on the Scratch the micro:bit device (helloworld.cc/2rj8Axl). There will also be dozens of new Wiki (helloworld.cc/2IdsZyz). The Raspberry Pi is already supported in characters, backdrops and sounds Scratch, but sadly other boards, such as the available, which will freshen up the micro:bit PicoBoard and LEGO WeDo, aren’t going to program for long-term users.

  • Television for Women: Generation, Gender and the Everyday
    Television for Women: Generation, Gender and the Everyday Study submitted in part fulfilment of the requirement for the award of PhD Hazel Collie March, 2014 To be awarded by De Montfort University, and undertaken in collaboration with the University of Warwick. Sponsored by the Arts and Humanities Research Council 1 Declaration I declare that this is my own, original work and that all sources used have been cited. Name: Hazel Collie Signed: Date: 2 Abstract This study is part of the AHRC funded project “A History of Television for Women in Britain, 1947-1989”. The research is based upon the data gathered from interviews carried out with thirty geographically and generationally dispersed women about their memories of watching television in Britain between 1947 and 1989. I have used generation and gender as analytical categories, and have paid particular attention to the role of memory work in this type of historical research. This thesis aims to build upon previous work which has investigated the connection between generation and interaction with popular culture, but which has not theorised those relationships (Press, 1991; Moseley, 2002). The shifts and, indeed, continuities in the lives of different generations of British women are considered to gain a sense of the importance of generation in the production of identity. Significant differences arose between generations in terms of reflexivity and around questions of quality, value and taste as generations intersected with feminist and neoliberal cultures at different life stages. What was particularly interesting, however, was that despite the dramatic social change wrought by this post-war period, the narratives of women of different generations were surprisingly similar in terms of their everyday lives.

    NEWSLETTER No. 445 March 2015 LMS 150TH ANNIVERSARY LAUNCH EMS Presidential Toast Dear colleagues, dear friends, Time is late and the cake is ready, so I will be brief. Coming to a birthday party, one is aware that not all the birthdays are the same. Some have a human dimension, some go far beyond. One hundred and fifty would be fit for a rather healthy elephant, or maybe a mighty whale. Of course, it is not the age itself which matters, rather the wisdom which comes with it. In the case of the London Mathematical Society it raises no doubts. It had not only a brilliant childhood and youth – there is no need to go to detail after we have listened to the talk of Frances Kirwan – but it Pavel Exner, President of the European Mathematical Society and remains equally strong nowadays, and I dare Terry Lyons, President of the London Mathematica Society to say that it reached the stage of mature wisdom which your friends across the water respect, from outside of this island brings me naturally to the enjoy, and admire. Mentioning how the LMS looks European Mathematical Society, on behalf of which I am speaking here. It is our common home, and I assure you that it is a complicated building which bears on many columns, very different ones. Of those the LMS is one of the oldest, and also the central and most solid ones. With all that in mind I want to congratulate you at the occasion of the anniver- sary in the name of all the European mathematical community and to propose a toast.

  • Key Suggestions from Witnesses
    SELECT COMMITTEE ON DIGITAL SKILLS Key suggestions from witnesses Introduction This document compiles the key suggestions made by every witness who provided oral evidence to the Digital Skills Committee between July and November 2014. The suggestions have been grouped according to ‘themes’. Some witnesses provided more than one suggestion. All oral and written evidence is published online at: http://www.parliament.uk/digital-skills- committee. Basic literacy and numeracy Professor Alan Manning, London School of Economics: “I just go back to saying that the biggest weakness over generations of our education system is in basic literacy and numeracy among a sizeable fraction of the population and we should not lose sight of that. It is our single biggest problem.”1 Basic online skills for all Helen Milner, Tinder Foundation: “I think you should have a target for helping almost 100% of people to achieve basic online skills by 2020. We did the costings for that in our recent report by Catherine McDonald. It will cost around £850 million.”2 Broad skillsets for the future James Thickett, Ofcom: “My view is that we need to look at cognitive skills as being as important as basic digital or technical skills. Whenever we think about developing a digital skills strategy, we should consider incorporating cognitive skills because not only do they prevent negative online experiences, they equip people with the skills to get more out of the internet. It is particularly important to mould children and young people because they are most at risk from not having these skills. As they get very advanced in coding and things, there is a risk that they become overconfident and subject themselves to risk.”3 Angela Morrison, Direct Line Group: “I would like to see technical skills being equivalent to reading, writing and arithmetic in schools.
