Arthur Vining Davis High Impact Fellows Projects

The focus of this project is to adopt a course/curriculum that builds interest in computer science and appeals to high school students through a variety of programs and activities. One of our goals is to increase interest in computer science among high school students especially minority and female students. Students will learn how to use programming languages, utilize higher level problem solving and program robots using the skills they acquired. The course, Exploring Computer Science, gives students the opportunity to learn a variety of computer science topics and have fun doing it.
