CSED Week: Live Coding Improv with Bitsbox

CSED Week: Live Coding Improv with Bitsbox

Bitsbox makes coding your own app easy. In as little as 2 lines of code you can make something happen on the screen! Let’s find out how many colors, creatures, noises, backgrounds and more can combine to make an app in just a few minutes! In this live demo, the Bitsbox founders will demonstrate the creative and superfun side of coding by showing you the very basics of Bitsbox app making, and then taking your live suggestions and shout outs and coding them on the spot! Come see what you, the audience, and Bitsbox can make with coding improv as warm up for Capstone presentations 1-3pm. Canyon Theater

This event is part of Boulder Computer Science Education Week, December 1-8, 2018.

Create apps. Code robots. Design stories. Explore new technologies, new programming languages and environments, meet robots, try coding, engage with problem solving and gadgets. Meet extraordinary people of all ages doing amazing things during Boulder CSED Week.

Boulder CSED = free Computer Science Education programs for everyone at your library, school and tech partner organizations.

We have code at our fingertips as we drive our cars, check the news on a laptop, or message a friend with our cell phones. Boulder CSED Week invites learners of all ages (adults, school aged kids, and even pre-schoolers) to consider code and create with it! Experience robots, and control them with code, make a block based program or write out coded instructions, learn how to code a new device or make an app, visit with a robot at story time, and more! All of Boulder CSED Week’s program are free and open to the public. Programs are hosted by local experts, educators, and makers, and inspiring technologies offer pathways for code-learners of all levels of experience. Some programs ask for pre-registration. Join us - create with code for this year’s Boulder CSED week!

Volunteer. Present. Build, test, experiment. Solve tricky bugs. Be a code creator!

We are delighted to host programs with these awesome partners who volunteer their time for Boulder CSED 2018!
