Google CS First: Fashion & Design
CS First is a free program that offers computer science projects for students aged 9-14 who sign up to be part of the club. In the fashion and design project, students move through eight activities that focus on an aspect of fashion design and develop computer science skills. Activities include telling a fashion story, styling, fashion innovation, a fashion poll, making patterns and holding a fashion awards ceremony. Each activity is supported by a video and project starters which students use to remix and create their own stories. Lesson plans accompany the student activities.
