There are initiatives and projects that aim to teach children how to code, and at the same time there are also initiatives that are aimed specifically at girls to encourage them to enter an otherwise male-dominated career. According to Google, about 22% of gaming developers are women.This is why Google has teamed up with the Wonder Woman movie to launch a new coding project that is based around the movie as part of Google’s Made with Code initiative. This particular project will see kids code three unique scenes from the movie using introductory coding principles that will help Wonder Woman navigate obstacles and to reach her goal.
According to Google, “Made with Code, Google’s initiative to champion the next generation of female leaders and inspire them to see coding as a way to pursue their dreams, is releasing a new interactive coding project for wonder women everywhere to add coding to their superpower toolkit.”
It looks like a pretty fun project and while it is aimed at girls, we don’t see why the boys can’t join in on the fun as well. For those who are interested in checking it out, head on over to Made with Code’s website for the details.
