KEARNEY – Youth will learn to code, build a website, create an app or a game, and explore technology in an informal environment at the upcoming CoderDojo at University of Nebraska at Kearney.

The event includes three separate sessions and is hosted by UNK’s Computer Science and Information Technology.

coder-dojo-2CoderDojos are from 6 to 8 p.m. at UNK’s Otto Olsen Building room 110 on Feb. 20, March 13 and April 17.

Students may attend one, two or all sessions. There is no cost to attend. The CoderDojo experience is individualized for each student.

CoderDojos are unstructured, open-source coding clubs for students in third grade through seniors in high school. Participants are introduced to computer programming. Parents are welcome to stay.

CSIT faculty and students at UNK, along with area IT professionals, will assist as mentors.

Students may bring their own devices to use. UNK also will have computers available.
