ScracthDay

¡¡ SCRATCH DAY 2020 !!

Bienvenido a la página oficial del Scratch Day del Museo de Informática de la ETSINF.

¡¡ Diviértete Programando !!

Ven a programar y jugar con nosotros.
Debido a las condiciones especiales que estamos viviendo por motivo al COVID-19, el taller está dirigido exclusivamente a los alumnos del primer curso del Grado de Ingeniería Informática.
El taller tendrá lugar al finalizar las jornadas de bienvenida los días 14, 21 y 28 de septiembre en las aulas 1.1 y 1.2 del edificio 1G, sólo se podrá asistir el día que cada alumno tenga su jornada.
Recuerda que esta actividad es completamente gratuita y se expide un certificado de asistencia.
Para la realización del taller es necesario disponer de un ordenador portátil propio.

RetroProgramming

Have you ever wanted to know how a computer was programmed in the 80s? This is your chance!

The Museum of Computing and ACM UPV Chapter invite you to attend a conference where you could learn to program with an operative AMSTRAD CPC and be able to know all its curiosities.

Have you ever heard of “poke“? Do you know what a “charger” is?

We are convinced that this experience will enrich your training as computer engineers as well as you enjoy being in the shoes of a BASIC programmer from the 80s.

Naturally, after finishing this workshop you will be able to answer the questions above.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

  • Participants: ETSINF Students (limited positions)
  • Date and hour: Monday 23rd April 2018, 11:00 – 13:00
  • Place: Museo en Vivo, Building 1E.
  • Application: Here

The origin of Public-key Cryptography

This workshop shows the mathematic foundation of the asymmetric cyphering systems used in nowadays computers. Through some practical activities we will explain differences between public and private key, Kerckhoffs’ principle, Diffie-Hellman algorithm and we will try to break them. This workshop requires the visitors to have some mathematical concepts clear (factorisation, prime numbers), so it is recommended for undergraduate students.

Alan Turing and the Enigma Machine

Know all the aspects of the life and work of the british mathematician Alan Turing, one of the fathers of informatics. This workshop focuses in the Alan Turing’s role during WWII as a cryptoanalist of the encrypted messages of the German Force. Visitors will act as cryptonanalysts and will know how Enigma Machine worked as well as use it to encrypt and decrypt their own messages. This workshop is recommended for people of all ages.

Classic Cryptography workshop

In this workshop we teach, in a fully practical way, some of the most known methods in message encryption. In addition, we introduce the mathematical basis of cryptoanalysis. This workshop is recommended for those looking forward to introduce themselves into the cryptography world.

Physical programming workshop using Scratch and Picoboard

This workshop combines Scratch programming and physical world interactions through the Picoboard sensor board. Visitors will have fun by designing and programming video games in which sliders, buttons and light and noise detectors take part. This workshop is recommended for those with basic programming skills who want to involve their programs with real world physical events.

Basic Programming Workshop using Scratch

In this activity we teach programming by means of the design and conception of a videogame, just as a computer engineer will do it, applying computational thinking. To participate in this activity there is no need to have previous knowledge on programming skills nor using Scratch. This activity is prepared for those programming beginners.

Retroinformatics Workshop

This activity takes the visitor into the world and uses of informatics of the first home computers. We use Amstrad microcomputers from the decade of 1980s to study little BASIC written programs and play some vintage videogames. Due to the material, the museum staff recalls teachers and visitors to be responsible and careful when using it. This workshop can take up to 32 students.
