My Project
By exposing children to computer science at an early age, these books can inspire them to consider careers in technology and programming. This exposure may also encourage a more diverse group of students to pursue STEM fields in the future.
In today's technology-driven world, digital literacy is essential.
Computer science books can help students understand the basics of computers, the internet, and digital devices, fostering responsible and safe technology usage.
My students enjoy reading and learning new things. I have introduced them to robotics, but, these books will take their learning one step further. Their hunger for knowledge and exploration opens up endless possibilities.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
