Some Computer Science Student Opportunities
Here are 530 free online programming and computer science courses you can start in May (browsable list): https://medium.freecodecamp.org/5e82f5307867
We are Chicode, led by a group of students that want to further computer science in public schools across Chicago! Our end goal is to create a league of hackathons and code meet-ups across the city that are accessible for every CPS student. Throughout the events we will have workshops teaching students various programming languages and technologies, along with mentors to help them get started.
We think that this is the best way to increase student involvement in CS, as these events would provide the community aspect necessary to make coding seem fun and approachable. Our first hackathon, event0, is scheduled May 19-20 at ChiTech Academy High School (1301 W 14th St).
But we need your help! Student involvement is key to make our event happen. We hope you will let your students know about ways to get involved in our organization (whether it be through spending a day at one of our events or getting involved with our organization at a deeper level):
How Your Students Can Attend event0: Just sign up here! We don’t care how much experience they have in computer science as long as they’re passionate. We know this will be the first hackathon a lot of students have attended, so we’ll have plenty of mentors (both college CS majors and industry professionals) on hand to offer guidance.
Potential Leadership Role for an Interested Student: What we need is the contact information of a passionate student that will be able to manage the communications between us and your school — you can submit that through this form. We will work with this student to get your school involved in our event's outreach as well as any of our other future endeavors!
We hope to hear from you, and feel free to email us if you’re interested in talking about computer science or how you could further get involved.
Thank you so much!

BDPABDPA wants to encourage more African Americans to to create mobile applications and we think that that Chicago Public Schools can help! We want to invite students to participate in the 5th Annual BDPA Mobile Application Showcase taking place during the upcoming National BDPA Technology Conference in New Orleans on August 2018.
We recognize that we need to do more to engage with high school or college students interested science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) curriculum. We know that many of these young people are not on career pathsthat will lead them from the 'classroom to the boardroom'.
We seek high school and college students willing to showcase their application development skills in a showcase that allows them to compete against students from around the nation. They will be asked to develop an application in one of three categories (business, gaming or personal productivity) on Android or iOS smartphone operating systems.
High-performing students will earn college scholarships from BDPA and its corporate sponsors. Encourage students you know to register for Mobile Applications Showcase!
Finally, we want your students to check out the BDPA Job Board - www.ITDiversityCareers.com. Please encourage your STEM-trained students and graduates to upload their current resume and seek out internships in the IT industry. We need college students and graduates from in and around Chicago to take advantage of this online resource!
Troy, we want to create a mutually beneficial way for Chicago Public Schools and BDPA to work together. Please feel free to contact us via email ([email protected]) or on (301) 584-3135 if you have questions or wish to discuss further.
Exploring Computer Science Homework 4-4
Name: ___________________________________________________ Period ___________
1. Click the green flag. What do the three animals do?
2. Look at the scripts for each of the 3 sprites. What 3 blocks do all three sprites use?
3. What blocks does the cat use to move?
4. What block does the dog use to move?
5. What block does the monkey use to move?
6. Describe in your own words how the move block works.
7. Describe in your own words how the go to xy block works.
8. Describe in your own words how the glide block works.
9. Some of the blocks require x: and y: coordinates. Place the mouse over the white window and look at the mouse x: and mouse y: numbers underneath the bottom. Then look at the non-mouse x: and y: numbers in the upper right corner of the script window. How are the x: and y: coordinates determined in Scratch?
