Now Enrolling! University of Michigan Summer 2021 Program - The Joy of Coding
Negar Souza
I am Professor Raj Rao in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Michigan. I’m writing to tell you about a new online course (Joy of Coding) we created especially for high school students to learn coding in ways that are better structured and better supported than other resources (including MOOCs) available online. (Here is a note for why we felt this is important and essential.)
Could you help us publicize it to your students? We’ve included the message and a flyer below and we’d love for you to share it with students in your school as well as others in your community who could help us get the word out.
Thank you for your consideration! For further questions, please email continuu...@umich.edu.
