GirlsCodeToo

TecDay - Luzern
2024-11-28 09:00 - 15:30 UTC | Kantonsschule Reussbühl
What are TecDays?Since 2007, SATW has been organizing TecDays at Swiss high schools. During this full-day event, all high school students attend three elective modules on technical and scientific topics. The hands-on modules provide ample visual materials, experiments, models, or small projects, offering insights into the activities and daily lives of professionals. Module leaders are experienced experts from industry, universities, research institutions, and non-profit organizations.

How is GirlsCodeToo involved?We teach our Mobile App Development Workshop. The students create their own app in JavaScript using either block based programming or text in Code.org. First, the properties of the app are set. It is then made interactive, images, sounds and designs are added and it can finally be shared.

What is Go4IT?Go4IT, offered by the satw (Swiss Academy of Technical Science), is a two-part workshop designed for 1st and 2nd secondary school classes, focusing on career orientation in IT and laptop programming within a team setting. Over four school hours, students not only recognize biases in career choices but also boost their self-esteem. The workshop provides insights into the diversity of IT professions, sheds light on their significance, and demonstrates how relevant skills can influence current challenges. The objective is to engage students playfully and enjoyably, fostering enthusiasm for the world of IT and technology.

How is GirlsCodeToo involved?We teach our ImagiCharm Keychain Programming Workshop. The students create their own pixelated designs in Python. The basics of programming are taught in an intuitive way, using the ImagiCharm Keychains to display the coded designs and see live how changing code lines on a computer directly changes the output.

After School Programming - second edition
2024-04-12 00:00
We have been giving after school programming courses to girls between 10 and 12 years old at the primary school in Kilchberg! As it has been a great success we are now continuing with new students in the spring semester of 2024!

How is GirlsCodeToo involved?

We started course with an introduction to programming, using ImagiCharm Keychains. Following the basics of programming taught at the start, the students created their own pixelated designs in Python. The ImagiCharm Keychains are used to display the coded designs and see live how changing code lines on a computer directly changes the output.

In the Robotics part of the course, we made an introduction about technology, mechanics and robotics, before moving on to the important part: programming the robots! We used the Lego Mindstorms’ robots, which we can program in Python. In just a few hours students could make them drive at various speeds, turn, avoid obstacles, pick up things and a combination of all these commands in playful challenges!
