Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
All of these components will make a significant difference in our students' learning by introducing them to the fascinating world of e-textiles. By using these tools, our students will gain hands-on experience and practical knowledge about incorporating electronics into fabrics and clothing. They will be able to explore the creative potential of e-textiles, understanding how clothing can be transformed with lights and other interactive elements, opening up a whole new realm of possibilities for innovative and expressive designs. Our primary goal for this project is to foster a deeper understanding of Computer Science concepts, encouraging students to embrace creativity and critical thinking in their learning journey. Furthermore, we believe our students are truly special because of their boundless curiosity, enthusiasm, and eagerness to explore new ideas. Their unique perspectives and diverse backgrounds create a dynamic learning environment, making them the perfect candidates to embark on this exciting e-textiles journey.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
