Tech Bytes is a teen taught class on various aspects of Computer Science. Teen Mentors, Rayaan Siddiqi, Labdhi Jain and Andrew Choi, host live sessions each week accompanied by online activities posted in the associated Google Classroom. Teens (12-19) may register at the library's website to participate and receive the code to enter the Google Classroom for more lessons and activities. Tech Bytes is funded by the Project Next Generation grant from the Illinois State Library.
STEM Punks is Australia’s leading STEM Education provider and is now providing free online lessons in response to COVID-19. The lessons are all designed, filmed and developed by teachers to ensure learning outcomes.
Each week is themed differently and students are asked to complete mini projects, design prototypes and complete playbooks (all provided). Weekly projects are designed for the students to work autonomously with minimal to no parental supervision required.
