Python
Python is a programming language made easy to code and read. Python is what is called an interpreted language, which the computer runs right away. This allows the programmer to make changes in the code quickly and efficiently with as few lines of code as possible. It is derived from C, but is an easier to read. It uses whitespace to delimit code, such as spaces or tabs to organize data. At the end of the lines, neither semicolons nor curly braces are necessary, making it an easy language to read. Fullscreen games can be made with Python, if one manages to access the correct libraries.
Raspberry Pi
Raspberry Pi is a credit card sized computer that can be plugged into a TV and keyboard. It is possible to program things such as spreadsheets, word-processors, and games. It also plays high-definition video.
Project Proposals:
1) APP Using MIT APP Inventor
Create flashcard game where alarm goes off and unless user is able to correctly answer the question previously set for them, the alarm won't turn off.
User steps through a series of questions, and clicks a button to proceed to the next question
User enters answer for each question and app reports whether each answer is correct or not.
Using template from "MakeQuiz"
Concepts:
Input forms for allowing user to enter information
Displaying Lists, serializing a list variable to display it on separate lines
Program Saves quiz questions and answer in a database
Data sharing (maybe) two phones can communicate via a shared database.
Data displayed during alarm
Allow users to incorporate images into the app
2) Making a crossword game with Python to memorize vocabulary
Sort all words by length going downwards
Select first word and put on board
Select the following word
Do a ...

I am now going to begin the creation of the actual apps that I intended to create for the project. The mini projects preceding today were all in preparation for a more complex task. This new one will hopefully allow a user to create questions, set answers, and take the quiz at the sound of an alarm.
This would allow me to save the score of the user, question count, the correct answer and the users input.
I realized I loved working with computer technology when I was selected for the elite Technology Academy at Kent Meridian High School. At the Technology Academy, I developed an App called “FocusNow” where fellow students could check on their grades, attendance and progress from their phones. This process encouraged me to continue to learn and grow in the field of computer science so that I can inspire others just like me. As a result of my life experience so far, I am drawn to provide creative solutions to problems through technology. Especially in developing countries just like Congo where access to technology and computers are

iPhone called, Karma Jar. The program was developed based on the practice of a Buddhist
At the iPad center the students use a specific app that Mrs. Zeek tells them to use. I have seen the children use the apps Epic and Xtra Math. Epic is a reading app that reads stories to the child. Xtra Math is an app that allows the students to practice math skills through games. I thought it was interesting that Mrs. Zeek had a box full of laminated QR codes, one for each student, so the students can sign into Xtra Math with that. I did not even know that was possible! The children absolutely love using the iPads. Mrs. Zeek also showed me an app that she has on her iPad called Classroom, which allows her to see what all the children are doing on their individual iPads. This is a very handy app, especially for higher grades so students cannot do inappropriate things on the iPads. We talked about app selection in class and these two apps seem to meet all of the qualities such as easy navigation, student engagement, and developmental appropriateness. There is also a listening center where the children listen and follow along with books on CD or cassette tape. Mrs. Zeek lets the children start and stop the CD player on their own, but she does not let them change the
The students will be able to use their iPads and the RAZ Kids Program found at https://www.raz-kids.com/ to demonstrate their reading comprehension.
These devices are attached to the motherboard through different connections. The output devices like monitors and printers can be used by a file server to show different files or print hard copies of files. These devices take the data from the computer and put it into a format that users can read and understand. I would like to take a moment here and go over the different kinds of monitors that a person can use as an output device. The first is the regular CRT monitors are heavy and use a lot of electric power to display objects, but are preferred by graphical artist for the color rendition. Then there are the flat panel monitors, which can use liquid Crystal Display (LCD) or a plasma display. These displays use electronically at each pixel to control the color. The input devices like a keyboards and a mouse. These inputs take the movements from the users and turn it into data that the computer can understand. (Beach,
For this project, I chose to select the option of making an artist’s book. I have always found the portrayal of written words and pictures quite fascinating. Some have each page carefully worked out with decorative motifs varying from page to page. Some have fancy covers or style of binding that screams “pick-me-up!” But the type of books that fascinate me the most are those that are dedicated to the art of photography. I proposed for this book to be created as a photographic reference towards life. I wanted to create something that had meaning. I wanted it to tell a story, appeal to the eye as well as the mind. I chose to entitle the book ‘ABC’s of Life.’ Yes, I know that sounds kind of cheeseball, but a fancy name wouldn't get the point across.
To take full advantage of this device is required a complex data structure that can support all actions and a software platform that, when the context or the user's needs change, can evolve
Python is a software program that lets you code basic programs. I used this program to code a lot of different programs, that includes the calculator I made in my assessment earlier this year. One of the key features of Python is its colour coded functions. This makes it easier to use and more efficient
The programming language C++ can be used in many ways. It has exploded into the gaming community allowing PC game programmers to have access to a stabile, yet powerful, programming language, utilizing as little code as possible. It has also been used in other commercial software, such as word processors, audio players, screen savers, and other computer desktop tools.
applications have great teaching strategies and can be beneficial to children when learning and role playing.
Many different types of programming languages are used to write programs for computers. The languages are called "codes". Some of the languages include C++, Visual Basic, Java, XML, Perl, HTML, and COBOL. Each of the languages differs from each other, and each is used for specific program jobs. HTML and JAVA are languages used to build web pages for the Internet. Perl and XML can produce codes that block students from getting on certain inappropriate web pages on their school server. One of the most prominent programming languages of the day would have to be C++.
Learners’ satisfaction and results of the project are shown through interviews and surveys. Teachers say that the apps were a studying tool and that learners used numbers and phonics more confidently. Insightful results in independent test show good academic results. Results show improved scores.
Java is the language with which the application is intended to work upon. But the other possibilities would also be C#.
