"During Canada Learning Code Week, students around Canada will collectively code to unlock Emoji World and make it a better place for all emojis.
Last year students all over Canada learned how to code and filled Emoji World with 1000s of emojis including many 💩 poop 💩 emojis. Unfortunately, this has resulted in the release of too much CO₂ And now Emoji World is at risk of severe climate change.
Teachers, with you as the Commanders and us as your co-pilots, our mission is to mitigate the CO₂ emissions caused by thousands of poop emojis from Canada Learning Code Week last year.

Google's Code Next program works with high schoolers to cultivate the next generation of Black, Latinx and Indigenous tech leaders.
"Code Next is a free, computer science education program that meets Black, Latinx and Indigenous high school students in their own communities, and provides the skills and inspiration they need for long and rewarding careers in computer science-related fields. Between 2011 and 2018, Black, Hispanic and Indigenous college students each only made up 3.5 percent of computer science graduates — Code Next plans to change that."

With a focus on experiential learning, Brock University students worked collaboratively with Niagara Catholic District School Board teachers to develop engaging, coding-based activities for students that were explicitly or implicitly about mathematics. For more information, read the News Article from Brock University.
Teams first explored some resources developed by Dr. George Gadanidis, which led them to further develop 4 CT-based math tasks, which summaries you can access below.
1. Probability & Scratch 2. Exploring Geometry & Patterning with Coding 3. Creating a T-Shaped Puzzle with CNC 4. DASHing the way to Scratch
