Creative Code {Me} is about recognizing that coding should no longer be confined only to the worlds of computer science and art. In practice, coding is a useful tool across all subjects, and is best learned by working on an interesting project.
The core Creative Code {Me} program works by matching up teachers interested in supplementing their classes with coding projects to experienced mentors who can come in once a week to teach. This could include social studies teachers interested in data visualization projects, science teachers looking to explore real-world circuits and micro-controllers, art classes wanting to explore new media, and much more. We have experiened mentors in the following fields, all of whom are eager and willing to come to your classroom! Most of the creative coding resources could also be taught in a camp or workshop environment. Just let us know what you're looking for!

Creative Code {Me} matches creative coding mentors to the classrooms that need them the most. We believe creative coding should be introduced across ALL subjects, and have made mentors available to help teachers get this content into their classrooms. Read on to learn more about how it all works.
