SUMMARY:Fun with Data!
DESCRIPTION:This professional learning workshop is part of our Interactive Games and Projects for High School Students series.\nEach workshop is comprised of two sessions presented virtually from 6-8pm. See all workshops by visiting the series page here. \nSession 1: Tuesday\, April 14\nUsing a data table from App Lab\, we will incorporate multiple lists to create a guessing game. For example\, using data about US States\, pull columns representing state names and images. We will choose a random image and have users identify the state. What fun! \nSession 2: Tuesday\, April 21\nIn this fun session\, we will attempt to teach App Lab how we are best motivated. Using generated lists of motivation quotes\, we will randomly select a quote and tell App Lab if we are motivated. Using that input\, our code will slowly learn and work to provide more similar quotes to those liked by the user. If time allows\, we will also learn how to store data in App Lab from use to use (meaning the training we provide will not reset each time we press run.) \n  \nAbout the Series\nInteractive Games and Projects for High School Students is a professional development course designed for high school educators teaching a general Computer Science course and/or Computer Science Principles. In this training\, we will develop various projects in Code.org’s App Lab that teach students to use variables\, conditionals\, and create functions at an introductory level. \nEach project will be taught at an introductory level suitable for first exposure of the concepts while also including opportunities for advanced students to extend the complexity. Teachers will leave with working code that can be expanded by students into larger projects. Educators will explore strategies for integrating projects that reinforce key programming concepts while fostering creativity and problem-solving. \n  \nCost breakdown\nOne Workshop: $60\nReceive a discount and register for both for $100.\nDiscounts available for pairs and groups of 10 or more. Contact k12@newbo.co for group pricing. \nShare with a friend or colleague:

It’s all about learning through creativity\, curiosity\, and play. More about CoderDojo. \n  \nThis Sessions Special Guest: Eastern Iowa Arts Academy (EIAA)\nHow can we connect music with STEM learning? The Eastern Iowa Arts Academy will host a station where we participate in hands-on learning using musical instruments. There are many ways in which musical and STEM concepts are not only similar but identical. If this activity resonates with students\, they can learn about more ways to get involved at the Eastern Iowa Arts Academy! \nPlease register for this event so we can adequately prepare. \nShare with a friend or colleague:
