My Project

This coding device will give my scholars more information about the world of coding. I run the Coding-Robotic after school club at my school. Most of my scholars have only heard of this type of robot that runs by code.This robot will give them the technology advantage that they need to be competitive in the education arena.These are under privileged youth that don't get the exposure that many other scholars receive.The fact that my scholars are willing to stay after school to learn is what makes them special to me.
