SHE//BUILDS / HANDS-ON WORKSHOP
Build With AI.
A practical workshop for schools and organisations where girls and females move from an idea to something they can build, test and share.
No previous coding experience required. Delivery is shaped around your group, setting and learning goals.
Less watching.
More making.
Participants work through a shared challenge: identify a useful idea, decide what the first version needs to do, build a prototype with AI-powered tools and explain the choices they made.
The emphasis is not on technical jargon. It is on giving learners the confidence to experiment, solve problems and see themselves as people who can create with technology.
THE WORKSHOP OUTCOME
An idea they can explain. A build they can show.
