I work in a Title I school were my students struggle everyday to overcome the obstacles presented to them by their socioeconomic statuses. No matter what their situation is they always show a willingness to work and an excitement to learn. My students have very little knowledge of how computers or programing works. I want to teach them these valuable skills to spark some new excitement and career thinking in their young minds before they fall in the trap of thinking they can never achieve their goals. I want to help teach them 21st Century skills that can enhance their future goals.
