The IT Girls Foundation introduced students to foundational coding concepts through a three-week Sphero BOLT unit. In the first session, the girls learned about block coding by programming the robot to move, change colors, and play sounds—laying the groundwork for understanding how sequences of commands drive outcomes. In the second week, students explored Sphero’s ambient light sensor, using environmental lighting conditions to trigger specific responses in their programs. The final session focused on hands-on experimentation with Challenge Cards, allowing the girls to apply their knowledge through self-guided activities that combined creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. This engaging, progressive unit built technical confidence while encouraging curiosity and innovation in STEM.
