Classroom Cloud
At my school, we’re required to use Code.org while Classroom.cloud restricts access to everything else. While I understand the intention is to keep us focused, I genuinely believe that Scratch (scratch.mit.edu) offers a much richer creative experience and makes it easier to experiment. So why is it being blocked?
Also, let’s be real: in a real programming language, you can’t just type “score a point” and expect it to function!
Not today. You’re a principal trying to give me detention for using the elevator, even though I have a disability. Seriously? If you’re still around next year, I’ll make sure you regret it and I’ll have your job right in my sights. You treat me with no respect, and I won’t let that slide.
Is anyone else dealing with incredibly frustrating PE teachers? I’m seriously convinced mine is the worst. She yells at us for slowing down after just 20 laps while she lazily sits in a chair scrolling through TikTok. And whenever we get to do something fun, like dodgeball, she introduces terrible rules that completely ruin it. […]
Which of these two sneakers has a more feminine design?
I totally see your point! Tools like Scratch really do offer a lot more creative flexibility, and they can help students explore programming concepts in a more hands-on way. While I understand that Classroom.cloud aims to reduce distractions, it would be great if schools could also recognize the value of different platforms like Scratch. It encourages problem-solving and allows for experimentation, which is crucial in learning.
As for the ‘score a point’ comment, you’re right! Real programming involves understanding the underlying logic and syntax. But that’s where tools like Scratch can be a bridge—they introduce fundamental concepts in a kid-friendly way. Maybe schools could consider allowing more resources like Scratch alongside Code.org so students can experience a mix of guided learning and creative exploration!
