Hey all, I am back with a new blog post! I completed my first year of college, and I am excited to dedicate my time with TurtleStitch this summer with Ms. Ettenheim. In her AP Computer Science Principles and Animation courses, and she utilizes TurtleStitch to teach code. After visiting those two classes when I got back from university, I noticed how engaged her students were with TurtleStitch. The ability to visualize a code and physically hold onto a piece of fabric eases coding for anyone wanting to learn how to code. In Ms. Ettenheim's "Debugging Code" lesson, her students were able to see and feel the stitching of a code. Students analyzed what was incorrect about the stitching. They then experimented with the code and corrected it. Seeing everyone engaged in TurtleStitch and willing to learn is exciting! I will continue to assist her classes until the end of the school year. Problem: "The code repeats too many times: resulting in a thicker design" Res...
