Boardroom

On behalf of CoderDojo Kilkenny, we are excited to meet and share experiences with our fellow club members, parents, educators, partners, leaders and tech enthusiasts to promote tech learning for all ages. We have put together a diverse and inspiring mix of speakers, workshops, and partners to spread the boundaries of our tech knowledge. Making tech available and interesting to girls has been a priority to us, and as such we have a strong mix of female speakers and presenters. It has also been a priority to display how technology is open to all children and adults, and as such we have speakers and workshops focussing on accessibility in tech.

Throughout the day, there are 49 workshops, covering 32 different areas, in the 6 conference pillars of - Design it; Create it; Code it; Make it; Discuss it; Share it.

DojoCon 2018 compliments the 2,000 Coderdojo clubs in showing the positive side of technology and kids, exploring technology in an informal, creative, and social environment. This is particularly apt now with computer science on the curriculum in many countries including Ireland adding it as a Leaving Certificate subject for the first time in 2018.

We would like to thank our partners and sponsors, for their commitment and engagement, and without whom this conference could not take place.

Enjoy the conference. CoderDojo Kilkenny.

TECHNOLOGYCHOICESAt Kilkenny CoderDojo, our ninjas choose to learn about computers through one of the technologies below. Ninjas move to new technology areas throughout the year, and are encouraged to work together.

Scratch is a great way to start learning about computer programmes. This visual programming language is used to make, stories, games and animations. We offer Scratch and beginner and intermediate levels.

App Inventor is a visual blocks language for building complete apps for Android smartphones. App Inventor can be set to build complex apps and is a good step up from Scratch.

Websites. Learn to build your own website using combination of 3 different languages: HTML, CSS and Javascript

Python is a powerful coding language used by professional programmers. Python is the coding language behind YouTube and Instagram! Learn the language through creating a series of games.

SPFX stands for Special Effects and involves the creation of graphics and animations. Learn to create your own original designs using graphics tablets.

Greenfoot. Learn to code in Java using a visual and interactive software development tool. Create graphical simulations and interactive games, and progress to more complex systems.ystems

Meet Edison. Learn Robotics and programming using the Meet Edison robot. Stack them or add Lego Bricks to invent your own ro

Raspberry Pi is a small but powerful computer that you’ll use tom learn about computer hardware and operating systems, before moving on the build and programme your own electronic devices.
