Our Tectorian of the Week is: GIRLS Learning Code!

You may have heard of Ladies Learning Code, which is a monthly meet up with rotating topics to help improve Digital Literacy for Women. It’s a national event and has become very popular in Victoria with continuously sold out events at Fort Tectoria and UVic.

Well, they also want to improve Digital Literacy in girls ages 9-13. On April 9th at St. Margaret’s School, girls will get to learn programming with Ruby. The workshop is designed to introduce beginners to coding in a fun, interactive way. They’ll play code-based games, solves puzzles and complete online activities to help them learn all about the language.

Ladies Learning Code also has a Ruby session this Saturday at UVic.
