Marissa Mayer discusses the importance of mentors at our Stories of Leadership panel
Interviews with other panelists at the event about mentors they had in their career
Would you like to inspire the next generation of female high-tech leaders?
Become a Technovation Challenge mentor! You’ll get a chance to work with with a team of five high-school aged girls as they design and prototype a mobile phone app using App Inventor for Android. You will support them as they learn computer programming and entrepreneurship skills, and give them insight into their career opportunities in the high-tech world. Most of all, you will inspire them to learn that computer science can be fun, and show them that women can become successful entrepreneurs.
Commitment:
Application for 2013 coming soon, email annalise@iridescentlearning.org if you’re interested in mentoring.
Attend a training prior to the start of the course.
Attend all sessions of the ten-week course– once per week for two hours in the evenings.
(Optional): Support the Technovation Challenge further by doing outreach in local schools to recruit girls for next year’s challenge, or connecting us with potential donors to fund the program.
