Recently I showed my students one of the best typing games I have found online: Typing Attack. We spent a lesson playing the game, which is great at improving typing speed while having fun. They loved it :D It was a great surprise when one of my students, a 12 year old boy, did 67.3 WPM (words per minute). I can do around 50-60 WPM and I am his teacher... He beated me! Congratulations RM!! :)

Trip to Escuela de Ciencia - Programning Videogames - 3-4 November 2015

In the Padlet Wall below you will find all the games that our kids created in just a 3 hour workshop using Stencyl. Instead of their names, only the initials are shown for obvious reasons.

Click on one of the boxes to load the game. You have to click on the scene to be able to play. Use the arrow keys to move and jump. You have to save the pink alien! Don't touch the boss! :D

Have fun!

KTurtle Programming 2015-2016

KTurtle

The Kturtle Handbook (PDF)
The Kturtle Handbook (HTML)
Programming Refference (PDF)

Windows Computers: Download the KDE Installer for Windows and follow these instructions. Basically you need to click next a few times until you arrive to the Package Selection window. There you have to select KTurtle from the list of programs. A few more clicks on next and the installer will download and install KTurtle.

Mac Computers: There is no installer for Mac. KDE can be installed using Macports although it looks a bit complicated. Searhing in Google I found the ACSLogo program which looks pretty similar to KTurtle. I haven't tried it (I don't have a Mac) so try it at your own risk.

Linux Computers: KTurtle comes in allmost all Linux distributions. Just search kturtle in you package manager (for example synaptics or software manager) and install it.

Web-based KTurtle: The guys from rollApp have released a web-based KTurtle. Looks good but some computers have issues typing some symbols and copy-pasting. Again, try it at your own risk.
