如今，对计算程序员的需求很高，同时熟练的专业人员短缺。在过去的几年中，这引发了许多计划的创建，目的是扭转现象。为了实现这一目标，此类事件旨在促进更具吸引力的编程形象，包括专业和技能。本文描述了这样一项倡议，该计划使用了独特的主题，平行的讲习班的独特融合来激励高中生学习编程。通过使用问卷调查，我们调查了参与者，并介绍了有关这些研讨会参与参与者，促进编码价值的有效性的发现，并鼓励参与者考虑从事该领域的职业。我们在一般层面以及五个单独主题的研讨会之间评估了我们的结果。
Today there is a high demand for computing programmers, and at the same time a shortage of skilled professionals. This has triggered the creation of many initiatives in the past few years, with the aim of reversing the phenomenon. To achieve this, such events are designed to promote a more appealing image for programming, both as a profession and as a skill. This paper describes one such initiative, which uses a unique blend of differently themed, parallel workshops to motivate high school students to learn programming. With the use of questionnaires, we survey the participants and present our findings concerning the effectiveness of these workshops to engage the participants, to promote the value of coding, and to encourage the participants to consider a career in the field. We evaluate our results both at a general level, as well as by comparison among five individually themed workshops.
