Wonderful Idea Co. PD Workshop: Creative Coding 

Wonderful Idea Co. is a creative design studio in the San Francisco bay area that develops resources to support the exploration of art, science and technology through making and tinkering.

Wonderful Idea Co.

Workshop Overview
In this professional development workshop we will explore computational tinkering — a playful, collaborative, and open-ended approach to exploring digital tools like Arduino, Scratch programming, Micro:bit, and Chibitronics Chibichip. As part of the two-day atelier, educators will experience several hands-on computational tinkering activities as learners, construct their own workshop elements, and brainstorm strategies to integrate new technologies to art, science, and making programs.
