bring coding opportunities to Pittsburgh schools
provide quality text-based coding curriculum anyone can use
after-school programs where local university students (from Carnegie Mellon) teach and mentor local 7th and 8th grade students
creating and providing what we discovered didn't exist anywhere else:
a free and open-source text-based coding curriculum that goes beyond just simple learning of code syntax
"This is cool."
"I can do this."
"I want to do more of this."
"I kind of ruled out anything with coding as a future career before, but I am definitely interested in that field in the future."
"I loved this class so much because of the independence that came with it, and how the mentors just let us figure it out on our own."
"I always thought that coding was for boys, but doing this class made me realize that coding is for boys and girls and that I can code too and actually enjoy it."
