Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

This project is incredible on so many levels! Students will learn to not only code/program the device, but with haptic feedback, sound, sensors, and motions, middle school AND high school students will receive the hands-on experience they all yearn for! Where coding and learning comes to life.

The goals for this project are vast, including a real-world connection to arcade style game development, as well as Python code syntax and real-to-life starters in the field of tech, not to mention the hands-on experience required for entry level careers and beyond.

This project is so special because it brings the magic and ease of getting started in computer science a breeze for all levels of learners- a population I am truly passionate about teaching!
