On Wednesday, May 22, 2019 the 6th Annual Mobile CSP Expo was held at Westhill High School in Stamford, CT. Students who were enrolled in the Mobile CSP course during the 2018-2019 academic year were invited to demonstrate the apps they had created during the course under the guidance of trained Mobile CSP teachers. Approximately 70 students from five Connecticut high schools participated in the event.
Attendees had the opportunity to walk around the room and try out the various mobile apps. After two 40 minute viewing sessions, the attendees were asked to vote for their favorite app. The apps with the most votes earned the Mobile CSP People's Choice Award.
After the first viewing session, Westhill High School Principal Michael Rinaldi gave welcoming remarks followed by Computer Science Teacher and Mobile CSP Master Teacher Chandan Sarkar. The event concluded with a thank you and closing remarks from Mobile CSP's Curriculum and PD Coordinator Pauline Lake along with lunch sponsored by Subway.
