• Ontario unveils modernized science curriculum, will begin teaching coding in Grade 1

  That said, over the summer I taught her some of the basics of programming with a Botley toy, which is a little robot for kids to program. From there she did a bit of CodeSpark before moving onto ScratchJr which as I mentioned she is taking online classes for. I've been amazed at what she has managed to accomplish making things like a very basic Frogger game. Source: over 2 years ago

• [Eurogamer] Game Builder Garage review: entertainment and education blend together

  I suggest looking into simpler stuff that is also programming. You can get him into Scratch JR with some cool activities or, if you want something more "techie", I suggest something like CodeSpark. Source: about 3 years ago

• Training Juniors Remotely Is Possible. Here's How.

  Tools like Gather Town to encourage more ad hoc group interaction. One team I led used this tool daily for nearly a year, and the frequency and quality of our interactions were on par with an in-person office. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• Do people miss informal chats with coworkers when wfh?

  I'm really digging gather.town for this. Our team has it set up & the ad-hoc "meetings" have gone up tremendously. You can choose to engage or not but it seems to be way more informal than slack for a quick sync, which is a gigantic strength imo. Source: over 1 year ago

• Do you agree ? I don't but this company also asked new joiners if they'd join at half of what they were offered. I don't know if they are feeling the heat or are we wrong about remote being best model for IT jobs.
