New! Second Edition of Invent to Learn Released

New! Second Edition of Invent to Learn Released | iPads, MakerEd and More  in Education | Scoop.it
We are excited to announce that a newly revised and expanded edition of Invent to Learn: Making, Tinkering, and Engineering in the Classroom has just been released.

It’s been five years since we published the first edition of Invent to Learn. The second edition includes a lot of new material reflecting how much has changed in this short time. There are many new microcontrollers to choose from, and many more that are better for school use. The fabrication chapter has been updated to reflect how the design process has been streamlined by hardware and software progress. There is an entirely new section on laser cutters and CNC machines.

Here are the languages worthy of your consideration. Each is a dialect of the Logo programming language. (Read What is Logo? by Seymour Papert)
