This hands-on session encourages everyone to bring their favorite laptop to experience FREE, virtualized opportunities for students everywhere to get their code on. Microsoft MakeCode is a web-based application that brings computer science to life for all students with fun projects, immediate results, and both block and text editors for learners at different levels. Walk away with a multitude of project ideas that meet CS and Colorado Academic Standards while giving students the ability to truly make their CS dreams a (virtual) reality!
