Coding Workshop for Kids

While we're still getting a handle on sending text messages, kids are learning the building blocks of the modern world. Phew! A free coding workshop, for children ages 8–11, will be taught by Dr. Anjayi Anwansedo at the Greenwell Springs Road Regional Branch library today. The workshop will cover the basics of coding as well as fundamental computer science concepts. Dr. Anwansedo formerly taught at Southern University as a computer science professor, and holds a Master of Science degree in Computer Science, as well as a Doctorate in Information Systems and science and math education. She introduced coding to the Boys and Girls Club of Baton Rouge, taught elementary school students during summer courses, and works as a coding instructor with local STEAM education and workforce development program the Futures Fund. She could probably help you share a YouTube video to Facebook after class, if you ask nicely. ebrpl.com.
