S.T.E.A.M. Pop-up Sessions Features Northwestern

Facilitators from Northwestern taught students at Jordan Community Elementary School how to use a Tunepad. TunePad is a learning platform that combines music creation with python computer programming. Kids express themselves creatively by remixing popular music or coding their own beats from scratch. Along the way, they pick up important programming concepts from variables, loops, and functions to abstraction, modularity, and debugging.
