Elements of the Program
-
Wide Walls- must allow for a wide range to projects, personal experience and pop culture, backgrounds

Idea: Have students work on a project, and each student makes a remix of the previous students work. Way to build on top of each others work and improve it.
Remixing is not cheating: make sure students understand crediting sources and are okay wit others remixing their work.
Schools tend to be top-down, and need to examine more bottom-up approaches to learning

Collaborative Coding activites- on paper & on the computer. Thoughtful partnerships for a week long project.
