Robotics Workshop
2024-02-09 00:00 UTC
A great workshop organized during the whole day in a school in Rheinfall!

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

After School Programming
2024-02-20 00:00 UTC
We have been giving after school programming courses to girls between 10 and 12 years old at the primary school in Kilchberg!

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.
