Digital Literacy Project

Do you know a middle or high school student who lives in the Boston area and is interested in science, technology, engineering, or math? Tell them about Pathfinders - a group mentoring program that pairs academics and professionals (mentors) in STEM with students who have interests in those same fields. Learn more by clicking the link below. http://dlp.io/pathfinders/index.html

The Digital Literacy Project Pathfinders believes if you can’t see it, you can’t be it. When academics and professionals in STEM related fields share their passion, students gain a vision for what is possible in their own lives.

It was so awesome to have our DLP classes visit us today at Harvard to attend the CS50 Fair! Their faces lit up as soon as they walked into the Fair. They left with smiles, pockets full of candy, and excitement about CS.

We owe a huge thanks to our friends at CS50 and Harvard Women in Computer Science for making this possible, to Professor Margo Seltzer for giving her time to talk with our students, to our volunteers for taking students around the Fair, to the school administrators and chaperones, and to the students for coming out!

We are thrilled to announce our 1st place win in the Students With Drive competition! Thank you so much for all of your support!

We now have an extra $5000 to put towards ZipCars for our volunteer transportation. We can't wait to bring computer science to more schools in 2015.

After a successful first week of teaching, our volunteers met to reflect and prepare for lesson 2!

If you love computer science, teach it.
