Teams of 2-3 students each will work collaboratively to create art using code and will participate in other code-related activities. The teams can use the coding platform of their choice, but popular choices are Scratch, Javascript, Pencilcode.net, and HTML. And for those who need a creative distraction, there will be techie activities available.
