raining sessions continue for Project Computer Science First, promoted with Google. Today, June 14, a training session will be held at the Milan Istituto comprensivo Via Linneo, directed by Giorgio Pietro Sturaro. Coach Lara Forgione will hold a training session for 28 primary school and first-degree secondary school teachers.
There also are two very special teachers for the FMD participating in the training session: Paola Pupilli from IIS Falcone-Righi in Corsico and Angela Fumasoni from Istituto comprensivo Paesi Orobici in Sondrio.
Paola Pupilli, who hosts activities at the Microsoft House for students on the school-work programme, is also a passionate and creative activist with the Coding Girls Association.
