My Project

PLEASE DO NOT DONATE TO THIS LIST. It is being funded completely by a grant from Code.org. Code.org has given me a gift card code to Donors Choose to complete this shopping list.

Students will learn both programming and engineering fundamentals with the various items I have selected.

The materials go along with Code.org's CS Discoveries class to take it to a whole new level with hands-on computer engineering, robotics, electrical and circuit boards, CAD exploration, programming, and 3D printing. Along with all the tools and supplies needed for a maker space that will serve up to 160 kids each year!

After teaching students the concepts of computer science, programming, AI and machine learning, networking, and more the students will get to play and create real-world models and devices with the items on this list. I am creating a kitted-out dream classroom for the students, and one any computer science teacher would be jealous of!

Mr. Brian Luetschwager Southside Charter High School Grades 9-12
