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.

Online coding and computer literacy classes designed for girls (7-18 years old)
Digital Making with Micro:bit
This course aims to introduce girls to the world of coding using Micro:bit, a versatile edu tech tool. We will use Micro:bit’s MakeCode platform that incorporates colour coded blocks based to teach coding using Micro:bit simulator. Girls will have fun making music, games and animations while learning about foundational coding concepts.
This 8 week course aims to introduce basic coding concepts by working on fun projects involving music, games and emojis to explore the potential of coding with Micro:bit.
