Accomplished with Disha P.
Yuliana and Disha worked to find technology to teach kids in elementary schools computational thinking. The learning module included product research, budget plans with grant spending proposals, and general categorization by age/lesson plan for the teaching tools we bought.

Accomplished with Max V.
For this learning module, Max and Yuliana went through trial and error to settle on hacking an LED strip. They build an app that used Bluetooth to communicate to an Arduino to have their code run and programmed the LED strip on its own. Although the components worked separately and not together, they still had all aspects of what they wanted to complete done.

Accomplished with James G.
This learning module was all hands and cameras and Ai. James and I combined a lot of different things to make the code run. On top of that, it was made into a website -- aslgo.jamesgoo.de -- that can be reached by anyone wanting to try it out. It works as a way to teach people American Sign Language and provide resources for it, which we found hard to find online. We used TensorFlow and joint calculation to work out what sign hands in front of a laptop's camera were making.
Oh, look, a write-up!
Accomplished with Evan R.
For this learning module, Evan and Yuliana first wanted to create a Braille reader that would move up different buttons to make braille letters. This did not work out and COVID hit the pair hard, so they instead focused on working out how servo motors work, as well as some work on CyberStart -- a cybersecurity competiton.

Yuliana and James worked to make the medical-grade robot arm -- donated some time ago to the school -- work. At first they got some motions down, but grew to make it play Tic-Tac-Toe on an online interface. It moved all blocks on its own and could never lose due to what it had learned.
Alright -- write-up!
As a cool-down after the large learning module previously, James and Yuliana decided to branch out and learn other coding languages. First, they started with some websitre freestyling (using APIs and different layouts) but soon found it redundant and instead focused on learning about AI and Javascript.
Here it is -- the write-up!

That'll do it -- write-up!
