  • Dewiswch Recordio (Record)
  • Dewiswch Recordio Sgrin (Screen Recording)

  • Dewiswch Sain (Audio) os ydych am recordio sain gyda’ch fideo
  • Dewiswch Recordio (Record) (dylech weld 3, 2, 1 ar eich sgrin cyn bod y recordio’n dechrau) a chwblhewch eich recordiad
  • Pan fyddwch wedi gorffen eich recordiad, gadewch i’ch llygoden hofran ar dop y sgrin a dewiswch Stop (Stop)
  • Bydd eich recordiad sgrin yn cael ei ludo’n awtomatig yn eich cyflwyniad PowerPoint

There may be many different reasons why you want to learn to code. It may be a skill that you want to practice for your degree; it could be a hobby of yours; or your may be interested in developing this skill to enhance your employability.

Knowing how to code is an incredibly valuable skill, but it if you’re new to coding, it may be difficult to know how to make a start. Luckily, LinkedIn Learning, an online learning platform which all students and staff at AU have free access to (learn how to get started), have launched a new partnership with CoderPad.

They have launched an array of new Code Challenge courses on Python, Java, SQL, JavaScript, C#, and Go, designed to help beginner to advanced learners develop their coding skills through interactive exercises and real-time feedback.

Take a look at the video below to learn more about these challenges:

There are currently 33 Code Challenges (but this is continually increasing), and you can also learn how to code and practice your skills with additional GitHub programming courses in LinkedIn Learnings.

Here are a couple of Code Challenge courses for you to get started with!

Efallai fod yna lawer o wahanol resymau pam yr hoffech ddysgu codio. Mae’n bosibl ei bod yn sgil yr hoffech ei hymarfer ar gyfer eich gradd; gallai fod yn hobi i chi; neu efallai fod gennych ddiddordeb mewn datblygu’r sgil hon i wella eich cyflogadwyedd.

Mae gwybod sut i godio yn sgil hynod o werthfawr, ond os ydych chi’n newydd i godio, fe allai fod yn anodd gwybod sut i ddechrau arni.

Gwyliwch y fideo isod i ddysgu mwy am yr heriau hyn:

Ar hyn o bryd mae 33 o Heriau Cod (ond mae hyn yn cynyddu’n barhaus), a gallwch hefyd ddysgu sut i godio ac ymarfer eich sgiliau gyda chyrsiau rhaglennu GitHub ychwanegol yn LinkedIn Learning.

Introducing our new ‘AU Graduates Digital Skills Profile Series’!

Laurie Stevenson [las60] Digital Capabilities Framework, Graduate Digital Skills Profile Series Leave a comment

Blogpost by Laurie Stevenson (Student Digital Champion)

As part of a project organised by the Student Digital Champions, we will be publishing a weekly series of interviews with graduates of Aberystwyth University about their use of digital skills in their lives since graduating, whether that is in their current job, Postgraduate studies, or career pathway. We’ll also hear about the skills they wish they had developed further before they left Aberystwyth University.

We will be releasing four profiles this semester, one a week on Thursdays, and the other half will be released in Semester 2. The first profile will be published this Thursday and will be available from this page on the Digital Skills Blog, but in the meantime take a look at the JISC Digital Capabilities Framework, the framework we follow here at AU, to learn what digital skills are and why they matter to you.

Keeps your eyes peeled on Thursday for our first profile!

Blog bost gan Laurie Stevenson (Pencampwr Digidol Myfyrwyr)

Fel rhan o brosiect a drefnir gan y Pencampwyr Digidol Myfyrwyr, byddwn yn cyhoeddi cyfres wythnosol o gyfweliadau â graddedigion Prifysgol Aberystwyth am eu defnydd o sgiliau digidol yn eu bywydau ers graddio, boed hynny yn eu swydd bresennol, astudiaeth ôl-raddedig neu ar lwybr eu gyrfa. Byddwn hefyd yn clywed am y sgiliau yr hoffent fod wedi eu datblygu cyn iddynt adael Prifysgol Aberystwyth. 

Byddwn yn rhyddhau pedwar proffil y tymor hwn, un yr wythnos ar ddydd Iau, a bydd yr hanner arall yn cael ei ryddhau yn Semester 2. Bydd y proffil cyntaf yn cael ei gyhoeddi ddiwedd yr wythnos a bydd ar gael o’r dudalen hon ar y Blog Sgiliau Digidol, ond yn y cyfamser edrychwch ar Fframwaith Galluoedd Digidol JISC, sef y fframwaith rydym yn ei ddilyn yma ym Mhrifysgol Aberystwyth, i ddysgu beth yw sgiliau digidol a pham eu bod yn bwysig i chi. 

Cofiwch ymweld â’r blog Ddydd Iau i ddarllen ein proffil cyntaf!
