p5 for 50+: How to Include Older Adults to Coding Education?
summary
Project claims that increasing coding access for older adults raises confidence and offers concrete artifacts: 13 interviewees (avg age 62) and over 500 people expressing interest motivate a Processing Foundation Fellowship prototype, a mobile web app with embedded p5.js editor that runs in a phone browser without apps, saves and manages sketches, and uses pen-and-paper tangibles so learners take home framed prints. Korean localization appears as a Korean translation of p5.js.org and workshops are delayed by COVID but planned.
