Civic Toaster

The old maxim says that a community that toasts bread together, stays together. But today's toasters isolate and divide us. We at the University of Berlin are developing a community-based toasting network that helps to brown sliced bread in a collaborative, open way, using Internet2 and a Django back-end.

PLEASE PLACE YOUR DEMO UNDER THIS LINE:

Say What!?

In this project, we explore perspective-taking, programming and storytelling as a path to youth civic engagement. We developed a seven-part workshop that focuses on the relationship between empathy and civic engagement. The workshop fosters mutual understanding, collaborative problem-solving, and self-expression through Scratch storytelling. We have tested the workshop in Boston, Birmingham, and Mongolia.
