This time, I moved the “Centre de protection sociale des enfants de tunis”. The centre hosts children who have family problems and without support. There is several difficult situation and divorce is the simplest one. Before going, I asked about that. After hearing some of children’s story, I stopped asking. The workshop was organized with the association: Culture For Citizenship.
The association made several workshop like theatre, poetry, paper craft … And we decided to make the Hour of Code event. In the beginning few kids were really engaged with the exercises. The other one came just for the fun, because we came as a group. Once the first kid finished the exercises and got a certificate, the others wanted to get it too. So we got a kind of competition: who could finish first.
I am Adel Kassah, a computer science teacher in middle school from Tunisia. Now, I am working in the UAE (ABU DHABI) I try to promote coding culture in my country and around the world. I run after school club about programming to kids. I teach them how to make their own games, their own Android App. They learn how to program embedded system and Robotics. I also cooperate with association around Tunisia and share my expertise. I develop my own tool or improve existing one. I made several presentation in conferences about Technology and coding.
