Why Hour of Code Nepal ?

HOUR OF CODE is a global Mentoring & Coding movement initiated by CODE.ORG reaching tens of millions of students in 180+ countries ,131 registered events in Nepal focused on introduction to computer science, designed to demystify code and show that anybody can learn the basics in an hour.

Here we are facilitating the coding workshop for 2 hours long workshop targeted to the students of age-group  (15-29) currently on the 26th, 27th and 28th of March,2016 where they will be taught about any output based programs on different programming languages like web development includes HTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT & BOOTSTRAP.

The objective of this workshop is to build the confidence to code within some hours and develop something on their capability under the proper mentorship provided by the Girl women mentors to learn that computer science with fun and creativeness, that it is accessible at all ages, for all students, regardless of background. The measure of the success of this campaign is to learn and code – the progress is reflected in broad participation across gender and ethnic and socioeconomic groups, and the resulting increase in enrollment and participation we saw today.

The training program is focused on the quick market substitute training and programming projects targeting from the basics of many languages.
The training will help the students (especially women) to learn the programming base and develop the confidence to code. The more they are into it, the more they can learn and code.
They could see the broad participation of around 58+ total registrations as the workshop delivered could impacted the life and changing their status of knowledge via the curriculum provided. The Workshops like HOUR OF CODE helps to the group of people includes all the gender to relate their tech stories and struggle and ability to boost the confidence level to start code. The HOUR OF CODE that WomeninSTEM conducted was more focused on use HTML & CSS, js and using Bootstrap.

The designing a basic template to coding and programming were covered on the workshop we conduct after the training session on basic syntax and uses. We could see the  impacts and outputs as the HOUR OF CODE was followed by Hackathon held by Prime IT Club in Prime College on 2nd of April,2016
