Girls work in small teams to help each other, decide on a shared solution and solve problems
collaborative learning
Use catchy, fun text to tell people what you offer.
Engineering Design Process
EDP approach is encouraged among girls during the problem solving tasks, so that they learn to think like engineers.
We encourage the girls to be innovators and risk takers. We believe that there are no failures, only solutions that are "more or less" effective.
Safe learning environment
We are totally open to getting feedback from the girls to learn what interests them. We will also track their interest level periodically to gauge their level of interest.

Personalised STEM Enrichment for Girls
Introduction to Scratch Programming Level 1 (ISL1/7-8) or equivalent is required for this course.
In this course the girls will continue to explore the Scratch platform and learn about a wider variety of coding blocks that will enable them to make increasingly sophisticated games and animations. They will also develop their algorithmic thinking by learning and practicing coding concepts that they will use in the upcoming courses.
This course takes 16 sessions to complete.
Concepts explored:
Getting started
Event handlers
Drawing sprites and backgrounds
x-y coordinates
Angles and directions
Sequence
Loops
Importing sprites
Text to speech feature
Basic conditional statements (if statements, if-then)
Defining variables
Broadcasting messages
