ICT
An exciting year in the ICT Department
SCRATCH PROGRAMMING
It’s been an exciting year in the ICT department. The IVs have been working hard on their Flash animation and movie projects. The IIIs have created apps for iPads and learnt how to write programs using Python. The IIs made their own web sites ‘the hard way’, using hypertext mark-up language.They also took part in a new house competition, to design and produce a House magazine. Congratulations to Molly Levene and Jasmine Tumilty (overall winners and best Tudor magazine), Leyla Edwards, Charlotte MacEwan and Saskia Pougatch (best Lanc magazine), Skye Novis and Mary Pool (best York magazine) and Emily Anderson, Tabitha Markham and Carolina Ortiz De Zúñiga (best Stuart magazine). Todds have had fun creating their own games and animations using a program called Scratch. They have also taken part in an international Computing competition, organised by the University of Oxford. Well done to Emily Newsome and Orlanda Stephens for coming joint first in the year.
Girls coming to our taster lessons were challenged to think like a computer scientist, taking part in the Lightbot Challenge.
