The NXT-G graphical integrated development environment (IDE) provides the five basic elements of programming: input/output, conditionals, loops, variables and functions. It combines research ideas from MIT, with a graphical IDE from National Instruments. Coming from a more traditional text based programming environment, and trying stay a step ahead of my children, I read Terry Griffin’s excellent book [1] along with some other resources [2,3,4,5,6,7,8]. This is a write up for my future reference. «read more» 
The inquiry “How do computers do math introduced all the components needed to build a microprocessor. This inquiry will continue, but this time use a top-down approach. It starts by introducing a computer architecture, from where it introduces the microprocessor and its finite state machine. As the the final the microprocessor is implemented using a field programmable gate array. «read more»

This inquiry answers the question “How do computers do math?”. After a short introduction, it dives down into solid-state chemistry from where it emerges to traverse along Ohm’s law, semi-conductors, logic gates and combinational logic. It surfaces by building a simple arithmetic logic unit. «read more»
