By Danica Chen, Del Norte High School

​On January 8th, 2017, AGSS in partnership with Coding the Future ran a continuation of last year's popular Python programming workshop. Its goal, as is the goal of all of All Girls STEM Society's workshops, is to inspire young girls to pursue STEM. One parent expressed his hopes for his daughter, whose first coding course was the previous Python programming event.  "It's too soon to say whether she will love it, but so far she hasn't lost interest," he says. "We've been working together on coding since the last workshop, and I hope this workshop will further develop her skills."

The girls learned the basics of programming and programmed their own digital turtles. The concepts were explained in an interesting way, using pancake metaphors and demonstrations in which volunteers pretended to be turtles. The girls were all clearly engaged, laughing as they paid rapt attention.

 3, 2016, the STEAM Maker Festival, made up of over 25 booths and attended by over 600 attendees, hosted the All Girls STEM Society. Run by 18 volunteers from five different high schools, the booth invited the festival's attendees to make mathematical origami, launch their own paper rockets, and watch a demonstration of a Scribbler robot at work. 

"I think it's really interesting what they're doing here," one parent said as their child gleefully colored a paper rocket. "There should be more organizations like these in the world."
