The Red Programming Language ....

        14/12/2017 Hi,  My name is Jenny,... This is my very first time blogging .... I have lots to share, so please keep looking on my blog .... Just a quick note before I start:  Many parts of this/my blog will be voicing my opinions, what I am thinking at the time I write it,  If you don't like it then just move on, I'm not interested in entering into any arguments or discussions about anything I say ....  If you agree, then that's nice, but if you don't, then don't bother me with it, this is 'MY' blog. About me:  Well I've worked with C# and VB professionally for the past 8 years, before that I was a glamour model, yes that's right tits and bum (and the rest) , but because of the constant and ever increasing requirement for me to do naked photo shoots, I made the decision to make a complete career change, so after several years at college and plenty of hard work,  here I am.  So, here I go - love Red, found it last year  t...

Unique Inclusion Opportunities

Do you love the idea of inclusion but your students struggle to go into the general education setting? Are you looking for more peer to peer interactions? This is something I am always trying to do. Having general education peers involved in a special education students school day is extremely important. For the most part (there are always exceptions) general education students provide the perfect modeling example for students with special needs. Our students are able to see and hear typical language development and proper social interactions. They are forced to use the skills we have been working on in the classroom. Here are a few ways to get general education and special education students together throughout the school day. 1)Start a peer to peer program. These are awesome. At our school we call it STAR (Students Talking and Relating). General education students who are interested in learning more about disabilities are able to join. Each week we have a lunch group and the student...

The Countess of Computing

The first ever computer programmer Ok, not about 'Red Programming' this time,  but still might be an interesting read. As I write this, I'm reminded of a word in a recent forum. It was suggested that I was an atypical programmer.   Atypical.  Meaning:  untypical, non-typical, uncommon, unconventional, unorthodox.  It could also be suggested that 'Red' is an atypical programming language, it's certainly far better and clearly superior to pretty much all of the others. The Countess of Computing Ada Lovelace was an English mathematician and writer, chiefly known for her work on Charles Babbage's proposed mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. Born: 10 December 1815, London - Died: 27 November 1852, Marylebone. The Countess of Lovelace. Daughter of Lord Byron. The man who was:  'Mad, Bad and Dangerous to know' . A gifted mathematician, Ada Lovelace is considered to have written the first computer program in the mid-1800s. Ada’s story...
