No More Stardates

 Dr. Peter set up a Google DOC for us to work on the workshop and we had a contact, Loke, who provided us with several options to think about including doing a coding workshop to her 1st and 2nd graders at her elementary school. The weekend we were scheduled to present the workshop, the Native Hawaiian Youth Summit was occuring at the same time. So, Loke’s proposal was that we try to gear our workshop for the youth summit so we could reach more than just her students. Once we had settled the details, we brainstormed about the coding project we wanted to do. We needed something for children with limited exposure to computer science that would be engaging and tie in with Hawaiian culture. Keahe and I did a lot of searches for things that would work and we settled on Hour of Code since we could easily adapt it for our purposes.
