Nationally Celebrated Digital Literacy Organization Launches New Program in Windsor

March 31, 2021in Tech News 0 Comments

MEDIA RELEASE: Canada Learning Code – Windsor Chapter

WINDSOR, ON., March 31, 2021 (updated April 3, 2021) – Canada Learning Code — a national charity offering beginner-friendly computer science education — is proud to announce the launch of their newest Program in Windsor with a computer science workshop for racialized girls.

What makes this special? The Windsor Chapter is launching their Girls Learning Code program for specifically Black and other racialized youth. They are going to run the program regularly and build the skills of the youth in the program.

The original version of this release included a stat which did not properly reflect the local community and
has been removed. We apologize for the misrepresentation and the harm caused.

When is the first workshop?
Sat, April 3, 2021 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT

What will happen at the first workshop?
Over a dozen learners and local volunteers will come together to learn and teach a new skill: using Scratch, a block-based coding language, to build a fun game! Throughout the workshop, learners will receive instruction from a volunteer instructor, as well as support from volunteer mentors on how to create their game and customize it to make it their own.
