Learn the basics of building and designing a website! Use HTML to add text, pictures, and color to your page. These skills are the foundation for all website creation and is a great activity for students who are interested in the internet and how websites come to life!
Learn the basics of programming by drawing shapes on your screen with Tracy the Turtle! Turtle Graphics (or LOGO) is a beginner friendly way to explore programming concepts and bring creativity into programming in a visual way.
Learn how images are stored and displayed on computers using pixels. Explore how images are encoded as a grid of color values, and make your own digital images using binary and hexadecimal color codes!
Learn the basics of the Java programming language. This hour will cover printing, variables, types, and getting information from users. Write a program that take in and stores data from a user and returns a unique response!
Make your own graphics and drawings on the web using JavaScript. Learn how to use our JavaScript graphics library to make pictures by adding and modifying shapes to your canvas. This is a great activity for an art class or geometry class, as requires students to place their objects on a 2d plane.
Learn the basics of coding with the Python programming language by writing programs that you can interact with! This hour will cover printing, variables, math, and getting information from users. Write a program that take in and stores data from a user and returns a unique response!
Students will explore how mass and speed affect elastic collisions by using conservation of momentum and conservation of kinetic energy equations to verify final speed values as calculated by a simulation.
Students are introduced to the JavaScript block coding environment. They learn how to write a program that plays their own 8 count beat pattern.
Students are introduced to the JavaScript block coding environment. They learn how to create a computer program that places images and text on a canvas to create their own meme.
Students are introduced to the JavaScript block coding environment. Students curate the environment of their own sports video game.
Students are introduced to Tracy the Turtle and learn how to code different mathematical models in Python! No coding experience is necessary, but students should have completed Algebra I or higher.
This Hour of Code looks at how transactions work on the Bitcoin ledger and investigates the overall performance of the Bitcoin blockchain.
This Hour of Code is an introduction to cryptography, hashing and blockchain technology, which is the foundation of Bitcoin.
In this hour of code, students will create a program that will solve for allele pairs based on user input. Students will program with Tracy the Turtle in Python to make this happen. Students should have prior knowledge of basic biology concepts and Punnett Squares before beginning this activity.

Have you ever wondered how many digits of Pi are really needed? Using Java, students will explore the impact of using different numbers of Pi digits in their calculations. This course is designed for students that are familiar with print statements and basic loops & conditional statements in Java.
Coding with Data Visualization is an hour long coding lesson that teaches students about the power of using data visualizations to display data in meaningful and easy to understand ways. Students will learn about several types of data visualizations and how they can be used to represent data, as well as practice creating them using a JavaScript library.
In this Hour of Code, students learn about how they can use computer science to help solve one of the biggest problems facing our world today: litter and waste. Students start by exploring real world examples of how engineers are using computer programming to reduce the amount of litter in their community. Then, they choose between two programming adventures: Clean Up with Karel or Web Design for a Litter-Free Community. In Clean Up with Karel, students learn the basics of programming in Python by giving commands to Karel. In Web Design for a Litter-Free Community, students learn the basics of HTML by creating their own webpage.
This Hour of Code begins with an overview of how coding has impacted the art community by providing real-world examples. In the final lesson, Code an Online Shop, learners are given a real-world coding assignment that will reinforce what they’ve covered in the previous lesson. Using the fundamentals of HTML, learners will have the opportunity to create an online shop mockup.
