Sustainability Hackathon – Make a game for the SDGs
Workshop4Me a.s.b.l
Description
The workshop is targeted to SDGs #5 Gender Equality and #13 Climate Action with the theme “OneEarth. OneFamily. OneFuture”. The session is an introductory course to coding with Scratch. The session is aimed at children aged 8 – 14 years, who are beginners to code.
The session consists of 2 main parts – A guided workshop on creating a story using Scratch, and an SDG Hackathon.
The workshop starts with an introduction to the platform, where the participants will be guided how to create a unique story by the lead coach. During this introductory segment, the participants will learn how to add sprites, animate their characters and make their projects interactive.
Once familiarized with the coding platform, the participants will be divided into teams to make a project for the SDG Hackathon.
Each team will draw an SDG Goal Number and 3 sustainability words which they must include as the theme of their project.
As the timer starts, the team members will work as a group to discuss ideas for their project. The children will distribute roles and deliberate on deliverables for each member. The idea is to encourage leadership, communication skills, and teamwork.
During the creation of the project, coaches will guide the groups and be available to answer questions.
Once the hackathon time is up, each team will be given 5 minutes to present their project to the jury members and other participants. Each team member should be involved in the presentation. The jury members will ask questions and comment on the project idea, teamwork, and execution. All feedback will be given in an uplifting manner, in order to encourage all participants.
The top 3 projects will be awarded with a prize, and all participants will be given a certificate. The goal is to make the workshop engaging for every participant.
The workshop format is as follows:
a. Intro to Scratch
b. Explanation of Hackathon (Teams, Goal # Selection, etc.)
c. Hackathon
d. Pitch/Presentation + Feedback
e. Prize Distribution
Breaks and energizers would be dispersed throughout the workshop to keep the session interesting and enjoyable.
The session is welcome to all children, and would have a highlight on girls to represent SDG #5 Gender Equality well.
