Learn Coding from Hip-Hop( हिपहॉप से कोडींग सीखें )

Not everyone is interested in technology. Some youth like hip-hop music. Hip-Hop hacks events are now being organized for such youth. The youth here coding in between hip-hop music and learn new things. 

Some American institutions teach low-income minority students. For this, they do not use traditional items like blackboard, whiteboard or powerpoint. They use microphones. With this, they rap politically. They also use mobile phones along with embedded reality apps. Their interactive hip-hop classrooms use music as an entry point.

Learn from Technology

Memes try to communicate instead of a lecture. They place Mohammed's printed picture on the wall and ask the students to scan it with the help of the app. On doing this, a menu popup immediately. It consists of Mohammed's Twitter feed, a SoundCloud song, a quiz, and a hip hop video. This lesson is for 30 minutes. Students post what they learned on Instagram. Memes say that phone is an important part of youth culture. We use them in classes. Technology is useful for young people who are troubled by pen and paper.

Hip-hop hacks events organized 

The classes of memes are part of a larger community of activists and educators, which introduce students to production and hip-hop culture with the help of virtual reality, organized reality, coding, and music. Schools are being rejuvenated with summer programs and monthly hackathons. The first hip-hop hacks event was held in April 2016. 500 youth from New York and New Jersey learned HTML, CSS and DJ production in workshops throughout the day. Only one of the 20 participants had experience in technology, while the remaining participants were attracted by the hip-hop element.

Use of Hip-Hop's Coolness

Now such events are being organized across America, where technology is being talked about with Hip-Hop. Most of the youth attending these events do not even have a computer at home, but they are hip-hop crazy. Hackathons are using Hip Hop's coolness to learn technology. 

Use of RAP

In events, words like HTML, CSS, python, and hacks are written on the whiteboard and students are asked to use these words in freestyle rap. During the Spotify hackathon, participants participated in workshops related to different topics. Apart from this, sessions on creating apps, trademarks, etc. were also organized.
