Curriculum
Learning objectives
By the end of the Coding for Social Change program, students will be able to:
Plan their app design through creating paper prototypes
Recognize issues related to ethical design of mobile apps
Apply basic coding concepts to build a mobile app that addresses a social issue
Communicate their project in a way that is accessible and meaningful to a general audience
My garden app
Students will achieve the learning objectives above through building the My Garden App, which aims to encourage users to plant pollinator-friendly gardens. While the workshops will focus on the My Garden App, we encourage students to be creative and come up with their own app ideas that address social issues that they care about. Instructor office hours (date and time TBD) will be provided for students to ask questions and get feedback about their projects.
