Through early engagement in positive environments, we strive to increase the numbers of underrepresented youth selecting computer science and engineering as a lifelong pursuit.
Boolean Girl creates a robust, continuous, and thoroughly enjoyable educational journey that encourage girls and other underrepresented youth in the third grade through the eighth grades to learn computer programming and engineering. Along the way, students will gain the knowledge and confidence to be creative and inspired participants in the field of computer science and engineering. It is the goal of Boolean Girl to: Spark students natural creativity and give them the computer skills to continue exploring on their own; to evoke in students an enthusiasm for both the competitive and collaborative aspects of engineering; give students a love for learning engineering; and to cause students to view engineering and computer science as a medium into which they can pour creative energy.
