Thimble helps you "make" with HTML

Thimble helps you "make" with HTML | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
not a tutorial, this tool shows what you are creating as you code
Beth Dichter's insight:

Are you interested in learning coding? Thimble helps you create web pages. You type html on the left side and see your work appear (or not) on the right side. In other words "you get instant feedback." 

There have many questions online recently about the need for students to learn how to code. This tool provides students with the option of learning through exploring. It may not work for all students. For those who would prefer tutorials there are some provided at the end of the post.

Introducing “Mozilla Webmaker:” helping the world make the web

Introducing “Mozilla Webmaker:” helping the world make the web | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it

"Today, we’re proud to launch “Mozilla Webmaker,” a new program to help people everywhere make, learn and play using the open building blocks of the web.

The goal: help millions of people move from using the web to making the web.

Concretely, Mozilla Webmaker will offer:

1) Tools. Authoring tools and software, designed and built with our community. From supercharging web video with Popcorn, to remixing with Hackasaurus, to making your own web pages with Thimble..."

We often speak about having our students be creators on material for the web (as opposed to movers of material that is already on the web). This new program from Mozilla will provide tools, projects and a community that will help us help ourselves and our students become creators on the web.
