ABOUT US

The goal of TECH4EVERY1 is to design and implement a collaborative and transformative student success pathways program across community partners so that students can thrive in an ambiguous world with resiliency, adaptability, and self-efficacy. This initiative will lead students to greater academic success and career equity, increasing upward mobility and economic capital for themselves, their families, and Los Angeles. The partnership will be guided by its Theory of Change:

 

TECH4EVERY1 Partners will design and implement a collaborative and transformative student success pathways program 

 

SO THAT 

We build a cadre of educators across our systems to teach students coding by engaging their creativity to solve real world problems 

SO THAT 

Students have the computational skills necessary to code in any language and learn coding as a literacy, enabling them to collaborate across disciplines and tasks 

SO THAT 

Students will be able to use creativity and problem solving to identify and solve challenges in their lives and in their communities

SO THAT 

Students can thrive in an ambiguous world with resiliency, adaptability, and

self-efficacy. 

This will lead students to greater academic and career equity and success, increasing upward mobility and economic capital for themselves, their families, and Los Angeles.

Established in 2020, the TECH4EVERY1 seeks to develop educational pathways from K12-Workforce in Los Angeles County’s historically underserved communities of color that foster interest in, and skills pertinent to, STEM fields. Members will further Computer Science instruction through coordinated efforts to recruit and train educators. We will do this with support from Apple Community Education Initiatives that delivers coding, creativity, and community connected learning opportunities to schools across the country.
