The Arduino 4Her cohort 2 was launched with the aim of advancing its first cohort, focusing on empowering female learners through a comprehensive introduction to programming, Arduino, and electronics.
The program spanned 5 days, meticulously designed to not only
introduce participants to the foundational and intermediate concepts of programming and electronics but also to prepare them for the Arduino Certification Exams conducted on the final day.
This strategic approach aimed at equipping the learners with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, thereby enhancing their credentials and confidence in the tech field.
The inaugural cohort comprised 15 dedicated learners from a variety of educational backgrounds, including high school, senior high, and university levels. Remarkably, the cohort also included learners from non-science disciplines, demonstrating the program’s broad appeal and its potential to inspire interdisciplinary applications of technology.
Starting from basic concepts and progressively advancing to more
complex topics, the curriculum was carefully crafted to accommodate participants at different levels of tech proficiency. This ensured a comprehensive learning experience, enabling all participants to grasp the essentials of programming and electronics and apply them creatively in various contexts.
