The program
The program is for girls in 8th grade and is also perfect for those who don’t have any prior experience. This program is a year-long program that includes weekly 3-hour long afternoon study sessions in small groups, various enrichment workshops, tours in hi-tech companies and lectures. Also, when the year is over the participants take part in Israel’s largest technology hackathon for teen girls, during which they build WEB apps and present them to seniors in the industry and local authorities.
What happens in the meetings
During the meetings the girls acquire a thorough and strong base in the HTML, JavaScript and CSS languages. The meetings combine programming studies and social and value-based activities. The meetings are run by young women studying computer science and engineering. The principles that guide us this year are self-efficacy, courage, self and project-based learning and studying in pairs.
