If you work in cosmetology, braiding, and/or natural hair care, this session introduces a visual program called Cornrow Curves, which helps children explore the geometric significance and computational thinking of cornrow braiding. Cornrow Curves is part of a suite of educational applications called Culturally Situated Design Tools (CSDTs), that has supported the integration of arts and culture into STEM education for over a decade. All tools on the CSDT website are free.
