Breaking the Digital Divide

Coding for Champions

PS43 Foundation Canada and Penny Appeal Canada developed an edtech computational skills online workshop to provide students within the Greater Toronto Area with access to opportunities to learn and develop various computer science-focused skills such as coding and programming. Students were provided with the technology and tools they need in order to engage in the online learning workshop.
