Software allows computers to touch nearly every aspect of our daily lives. In this workshop, students will explore the myriad impacts of software and investigate ways that they too can be makers of software. Students will use Raspberry Pi computers, learning about ways they can create software, while completing a group
The Design_Code_Build workshop explores how our relationship with computers has changed as input/output methods have evolved over time. This workshop will highlight historical methods of input/output and explore modern methods of input/output through physical computing using Raspberry Pi technology. This workshop is
The Design_Code_Build program welcomes middle school students from around the Bay Area to a series of one-day events that provide opportunities for all individuals to challenge themselves, become inspired, and see engineering, science, technology, and math as an exciting adventure that they can participate in.

The rise of Input Method Editors (IMEs) in China has had a profound impact on Chinese computing, making it today perhaps the fastest text input languages on earth due to its heavy reliance on predictive text, autocompletion, shortcuts, and abbreviations. At the same time, the rise of IMEs carries with it a profound sec
This special event welcomes fathers to join their middle school-aged children in an exploration of computer programming concepts. Families will work hands-on with Raspberry Pi technology, write detailed instruction sets to “program” each other through a life-size maze, and learn about the relevance and impact of comput
