I have a friend in NYC who has volunteered to teach high schoolers programming this summer. She's a public school teacher with limited resources, but she's been given free rein to teach whatever she wants, and asked me for guidance.
Her goal is to get the kids building basic web apps by the end of the summer. It's an ambitious goal but I think it's doable. Some resources I suggested so far:
* code.org for free curricula and guidance
* glitch.com as an easy and fun platform to start building web apps
Are there any other good tools she should check out? Any organizations in the NYC area that could help her? Thanks!
