For me, this is a big day. I have been thinking for a couple of years that I needed to start a blog. It just seems like the thing to do, among other things. I still don't have a true purpose for this blog, but it will center around teaching and computers, which are my professional interests. I have a lot of thoughts and ideas, so this will be yet another dumping ground for me to sort those thoughts through. Hopefully the writing process will help me with the sorting.
I have also started using Code Academy today. I want to learn to code. I can read code and understand it reasonably well. That is much better than most people that I deal with, however, it is not really enough for me. I have some game ideas, I have some program ideas, and last of all, it will increase my credibility with my techie students. I don't have a lot of them, but I really want to be able to influence the few I have, and I need to have credibility. I'm starting with HTML, mostly because I already have a basic understanding, but I'd really like to learn Python or Ruby, or both... I'm going to try to post my progress here, so I'll have some accountability.
