DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jean Greyling (Nelson Mandela University)\nThe TANGI
 BL coding project hosted at Nelson Mandela University Computing Sciences\,
  aims at introducing learners to coding concepts without the use of comput
 ers. It uses mobile apps\, customized tokens and image recognition to give
  learners the experience of actual code executing. Since 2017\, over 20000
  learners across the country have been reached through interactive worksho
 ps. With the COVID-19 lockdown regulations these workshops became impossib
 le. Consequently the team introduced the concept of virtual tournaments wh
 ere learners could play from home. More than 1000 learners participated in
  3 very successful tournaments\, making a wide ranging impact.\n\nhttps://
