Pharrell Williams, Georgia Tech, Black Girls CODE, and Amazon invite you to engage your students in an inspiring new learning experience that explores the ways music, computer science, and entrepreneurship can be tools to advance racial equity.
Students explore how computer science, music, and entrepreneurship can advance equity. Using Georgia Tech’s EarSketch platform, students code a 30 second – 3 minute musical remix using Pharrell’s new song “Entrepreneur”. Submitted remixes will be judged based on quality of music, code, and messaging by a panel of industry professionals.
In this session students will:
Students create an EarSketch account and gain a basic understanding of the coding platform.
Students hear stories of amazing entrepreneurs who “set their own tempo” before coding their own unique 16 measure song.
