SUMMARY:Talking to the Internet: An Introduction to APIs
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Curious how apps get data from the internet? In this workshop\
 ,\nparticipants will explore how applications communicate using APIs\n(App
 lication Programming Interfaces). Using basic coding\, you’ll\nlearn how
  to send requests and work with real data from online\nservices. Along the
  way\, we’ll introduce key concepts like\ndictionaries and how they help
  organize and access information\nreturned by APIs. In a hands-on activity
 \, participants will build a\nsimple interactive project that connects to 
 live data.

CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Ever wanted to design your own app but didn’t know where to s
 tart?\nIn this workshop\, participants will be introduced to the basics of
  UI\ndesign and prototyping using Figma\, a leading industry tool for\ndes
 igning and prototyping digital interfaces. The session includes a\nguided 
 walkthrough of Figma followed by a hands-on activity where\nparticipants w

SUMMARY:How did computers get so smart? The Science Behind Artificial\nInte
 lligence
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:It’s everywhere now – on our phones\, in our web browsers\,
  in our\nsocial media apps\, and more. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the
 \nhottest thing in tech today\, but what exactly is it? In this workshop\,
 \nparticipants will learn how AI and machine learning (ML) algorithms\nwor
 k and where they could actually be useful. We will also discuss\nissues ar
 ound data bias\, fairness\, and ethical concerns that arise\nwhen using AI
 . Finally\, Participants will create an image classifier\nby training a ma
 chine learning algorithm using Google’s Teachable\nMachine.
