Ida B. Wells Continuation High School in San Francisco gives a big shout out to Make School (www.makeschool.com) for creating and presenting a coding workshop. The students were engaged and enthusiastic about the awesome coding activity and Q&A panel discussion. Students use javascript to create a wizard that levitates and uses a wand. This was the first time many of our female students tried their hand at coding. Thank you to Lucia, Anisha, Jordan, Medi, Keoni, Seve, and Akhtar for assisting students.
“I enjoyed making the wizard and asking for help when it was needed.”
“ I enjoyed getting to code and getting to know more about this program.”
After the coding workshop, Lucia, Alisha, and Jordan were on a panel where they shared their stories. Their stories really resonated with the students. Thank you again for the opportunity for our students to meet such a talented and diverse group of computer scientists!
“I enjoyed when the panel opened up about their background.”
“Hearing the mentors personal experience inspired me not to give up.”
