Each week there will be a post {or two or three} highlighting some links that have been collected and compiled on the Links by Subject for Schooling page on my blog. At this point, I plan to go alphabetically through the subjects because that’s how I am but the websites most likely won’t be alphabetized…sorry for any confusion!
Computers
Microsoft- The link will take you to lesson plans that are available at Microsoft but you will need to search through them to find computer related plans. Or here is a page that offers curriculum for faculty that includes cloud training, Silverlight, programing for gaming, and more. Or if you look here you can find software for teachers.
Alice- “is an innovative 3D programming environment that makes it easy to create an animation for telling a story, playing an interactive game, or a video to share on the web. Alice is a teaching tool for introductory computing. It uses 3D graphics and a drag-and-drop interface to facilitate a more engaging, less frustrating first programming experience.” This is suitable for upper elementary through college and it’s free.
eLearning for Kids- Geared towards kids ages 5-12, this site offers free basic ‘courses’ that help kids learn how to use computers. Courses pertain to Word, PowerPoint, Excel and internet search and safety.
W3Schools- Free site for leaning html, web design, css, xml, browser and server scripting, and much more. It says for beginners and experts but I’m not sure how much of a beginner. Certification is available but does cost.
Free Computer Training Sites- This is a page on a site that has a list of free training that you can take for computers. I’ve not checked all the links. It has quite a few ads interspersed throughout. It was last updated on 4/2/11.
Those are some of the links for Computers that have been collected. Stay tuned for more link ‘highlights’ every so often.
