Are you interested in programming, but perhaps felt too intimidated to try it? With the right setting and approach, learning to program can be challenging and fun!
6:00PM - 6:30PM - Mix it Up!
We'll provide some light snacks and beverages while you mix and mingle and make new friends. Get to know some of the Philly Launch Academy staff and explore our space before diving in to the exciting stuff that is coding.
6:30PM - 9:00PM - What You'll Learn
Together, we’ll create some simple programs using Ruby and conditional statements that can help our programs make decisions. After learning the basics, we’ll find out what dice, rock, paper, scissors, and guess the number all have in common - they’re fun games to build with programming and Ruby! In this workshop, we’ll create games that use input, output, conditional statements, and looping.
Who Should Attend
Anyone who identifies as a woman, and has an interest in learning programming! No prior programming knowledge is required to attend.
