Creative Computing

OBJECTIVE: To teach project-based learning with programming and electronics.

​​​

DESCRIPTION: As a part of making creative computing curriculum for Karkhana classes, I designed an 8-week class to teach programming and electronics. Scratch platform was used to teach programming and Makey Makey as an interactive platform. ​​

​

IMPLEMENTATION: I designed an eight -week curriculum to teach programming with Scratch with the integration of Makey Makey. Students learned computing skills with a focus to solve a real-world challenge of helping people with obesity. Students were given a challenge to make a fun and interactive game that involves movement of the body and helps people exercise and in turn fights obesity. 

I delivered multiple series on this class over a year to middle school students from different socio-economic backgrounds in Nepal.
