dml101 teen programming
TRANSCRIPT
STAFF
Different age groups need different approaches… Even within teen/tween age brackets
Censorship/Intellectual Freedom
Age limit
Boundaries
Begin with entry level software
Project-based programs that are hands-on and result in an end product have been the most successful for us
Teens as expert mentors
Different methods of running a DML can work:
We chose to combine all of these ways
› Workshops (stationary lab or mobile)
› Regularly scheduled programs
› A Drop-in Lab that’s unstructured, where teens stop by during open hours and decide the projects that they work on
› System-wide contest, festival, or campaign
System Wide Contest, Campaign, or Festival
A video contest in which kids & teens make movies that tell the entire story of a Newbery award-winning book in 90 seconds or less.
