START A COMPUTER SCIENCE CLUB IN THE SCHOOL
Following the concepts and the insight on the computer science that I have learnerd from the code week course,
I have decided to form a computer science club in my school.
In this club, I will register students from different classes drawn from Form one to Form Four and then introdece them to the concept of Computer Science.
I inted to take them through the courses from code.org
I already sent out registration forms and students are registering so that I can introduce them to these concepts.
We have one computer Lab in the school with 20 computers and I intend to find time when the lab is free and the students can be available so that I can take them through the concepts learnt.
This is a long term thing and I know it will bear great fruit.
My school is a girls school and the students are largely drawn from disadvanantaged backgrounds. Introducing them to this concepts will broaden their thinking and will go along way in making their future bright.
