Session 2 is this Saturday, Oct 25. I will be covering motion and animation in #p5js. And we will have a visit from Angi Chau, scientist, researcher, & educator. #CCFestTeacherCamp #p5xjs
#CCFestTeacherCamp started with a diverse group of educators who used shapes and colors to arrange a composition using #p5js. And we had a visit from @sphsphsphsph.bsky.social. You can still join for the remaining 4 sessions.
