How are coding and culture connected? What stories can we code into our art?
In this two-part program, explore these questions and more as students create a beaded artifact and learn how to find computer programming ideas in nature and culture. This program incorporates the use of a bead loom with pony beads to understand algorithms, patterns and loops, designs, and sequences.Students will first have a 20-minute pre-recorded video session, followed by a 45-60 minute in-person session at the TELUS World of Science—Edmonton.
Please note that our flexible program length allows our sessions to be guided by student capacity and curiosity.
