Coding Queens challenges the gender segregation phenomenon by examining wider cultural issues.
At Coding Queens, we want to help young people think in smart and creative ways about technology by telling stories. We understand how important technology is in our society, and we believe that everyone should be eager to learn about it, regardless of their gender.Our storybooks cover different matters to show how technology can help people and the environment, and we make sure not to target only boys or girls. We want everyone to feel included.Our books aim to encourage all young people to think about how they can use technology to make the world a better place, and we want teachers to understand the potential of technology.
Cross-Curricular Learning.
Technology is more than just coding.
Tech operates in societal and environmental contexts.
Students need to understand technology's role to make smart choices. When they don't have much information, they rely on what they think they know. At times, they may think that technology is solely about coding.Our storybook characters, such as Lumi, a girl from Finland, illustrate how girls enjoy a variety of subjects, including science, environmental protection, and reading, alongside their interest in technology.At Coding Queens, we believe there's a need to teach more than just programming languages and to demonstrate how technology connects to various fields. When schools allow students to learn in different ways, it could help everyone find their strengths. If students understand how technology can benefit people and the environment, it might spark greater interest in science and tech careers.
