Class Experience
Introductory classes can be boring with campers spending lots of time writing short pieces of code that produce statements such “Hello World.” At Boolean Girl Camps, the campers dive right in and on the very first day use Python to create art.
Python is one of the most widely used programming languages in the world - it is used by many well-known tech companies including Wikipedia, ...Google, Yahoo!, NASA, Facebook, Amazon, and Spotify.
In this course, Campers will learn coding and computational thinking using Python syntax. Campers will encounter important coding concepts like loops, variables, and lists while they use Python to build a drawing application that creates a work of art. In addition to coding, interested campers will have a chance to express their creativity through visual design. If your learner is ready for Python, this class will give them foundational knowledge and skills while having fun.

Loved:
The girls were engaged and learned something.
Improvements:
I’d suggest showing them a finished version of the activity in the beginning, so they could see what they were making. I’d also suggest using a marker to add the instructor names to the board.
