Ambassadors

EU Code Week Ambassadors are the main point of contact for Code Week in each country and help spread the vision of Code Week locally. The Ambassadors connect people, companies and communities interested in supporting EU Code Week. They encourage organisers to register coding activities on the Code Week map, and promote the overall participation in EU Code Week. Ambassadors also review and approve activities in their country. Ambassadors also work with their peers in other countries and meet regularly to discuss how to further develop the initiative.

⚡️Суперсила учителів у реаліях сьогодення – навчати та мотивувати дітей, незважаючи на обставини, що склалися. Відношуся до тих представників освітянської спільноти, які готові докладати усіх можливих зусиль, щоб цю суперсилу застосовувати! І якщо мій досвід роботи може стати для когось корисним, то з радістю поділюся усіма напрацюваннями. 🖇 На даний момент працюю вчителем інформатики Вашківецького ЗЗСО I-III ступенів імені Івана Бажанського. З 2018 року є обласним координатором Міжнародного конкурсу «Бебрас». Співпрацювала з Академією Cisco та є її сертифікованим тренером. Декілька років була викладачем МАН. Дуже полюбляю залучати своїх учнів до найрізноманітніших конкурсів. ⛓️Також займаюся науково-методичною роботою, маю власні розробки програм. На базі свого навчального закладу провела курс «Основи веб розробки» та випустила сертифіковану групу учнів в рамках Всеукраїнського соціально-освітнього проєкту «WOW Teachers» 📌Як амбасадорка бачу свою місію у тому, щоб донести до ширшого загалу інформацію про цікаві та корисні ресурси ініціативи «EU Code week» та сприяти організації та проведенню заходів

Leading teachers

Leading teachers is an active community of more than 450 educators from across Europe. They help connect schools, teachers and students interested in participating to Code Week and encourage them to organise activities and register them on the Code Week map. The Leading teachers hold professional development webinars in their language and are a reference point for other teachers in the country but also in Europe. They also promote the initiative locally. If you are a teacher, you can find Leading teachers near you to connect with on the map.

Edu coordinators

EU Code Week Edu coordinators are correspondents in Ministries of Education or other educational authorities and organisations participating in EU Code Week. Edu coordinators strengthen the foundations of the initiative by supporting teachers and schools nation-wide. This includes communication with schools who already participate in EU Code Week to learn about their best practices and share experience. Edu coordinators also support schools that want to participate in the initiative, by providing available resources, learning material and opportunities within the community.
