Codes are everywhere! Ancient codes, modern codes, secret codes, open codes – people have been sending codes for thousands of years! In this class, we will investigate many types of codes, from scan codes in grocery stores to secret ciphers from the past. We will use this knowledge to practice sending secret codes to each other and learn some of the exciting history of codebreaking. We will apply what we have learned to design our own escape room, too! If you love to solve puzzles, this class is for you!
