We decided to challenge those who are used to standing at the front of the classroom. Educators from around the Valley dive into the world of coding with us — not to become programmers, but to understand how to weave these new tools into their teaching, and to get a look behind the scenes of the world their students live in.
The Coding Challenge for Educators
The Educational Dimension: Developing digital literacy among teaching staff. Learning basic, practical tools.
The Industrial Dimension: Exposure to technology that is now everywhere, in every field — and understanding what it means specifically for the world of education.
The Community Dimension: Education in the Valley is moving forward too — shaping and being shaped by what’s happening around it, not just inside the schools.
The Connection/The Experience: “To bring back the experience of being a student and a learner, to reignite the spark of curiosity, and to taste success.”
