Description
Summary:"Girls who..." is an education system belonging to the French national program "Accompanying in Science and Technology in the Primary School" (ASTEP). "Girls who..." is a girl network that develops and maintains an facility called the factory, addressing a double goal: setting an example of science performed by women and foster science and technology in elementary schools. Scratch is an open-source environment for multimedia creation intended to young people from 8 to 16 years old. The factory hosts Scratch learning sequences, designed and taught by "girls who..." Essence yields an actionable kernel of seven alphas, each of them going through several states of growing health. Alphas assessment let see a system from different viewpoints: opportunity, stakeholder, requirement, software system, work, team and way-of-working. It gave us a clear vision of the project state and raised critical weaknesses of the facility.
