a little about..
CODE ALL STARS
Can anyone learn to code?
The answer is YES!
CODE ALL STARS is our coding-specific website for STEM ALL STARS . Our goal is to motivate anyone, especially young women, who don’t have any background working with computers to develop an interest in computer science. To learn how we do this visit our Events tab!
GIRLS IN COMPUTER science
2/3rds of elementary-aged children indicate an interest in science; however, as they enter middle school, the percentage of interested girls falls dramatically
women IN COMPUTER science
The percentage of women working in computer science-related professions has steadily declined since the 1990s, dropping from 35% to 25% in the last 15 years
WHY does it matter?
If technology is designed mostly by only males, we’re missing out on the innovations, solutions, and creations that 50% of the population could bring.
What can we do?
How do we encourage young women develop a passion for Computer Science?
CODE ALL STARS provides a series of videos that teach computer science principles from the very basics to more advanced topics. The tutorials are appropriate for any age group and those with no prior computer literacy.
