As an advertisement project, my group of five girls decided to encourage females to code. We focused on Latinas, specifically because only 1% of them make up the computing workforce. We advocated that coding is fun and anyone can do it.
As the Producer of the group it was my responsibility to oversee what was occurring in my group. I had to make sure that everything ran smoothly and things were getting accomplished punctually.
The Tech class had an event called Tech Tuesday. At this event our group decided to teach coding in a fun and interactive way. We pretended to be robots that the participants had to program to serve nachos and ice cream. This helped us further spread the message that coding is perfectly fine for females to take part in.
