At this weeks Kiwanis Club meeting our speaker was Calvin Lam of the CoderSchool, Glenview. In an AI world, the CoderSchool teaches kids (of all ages) to think logically, explain their ideas, and problem-solve creatively and not solely relying on AI for easy answers. Code Coaches help turn big ideas into real tech projects...all while having some fun. Learning to code builds critical thinking skills that will help coders to thrive in an AI-centric world. The CoderSchool is Silicon Valley’s first nationwide coding program right here to our neighborhood. Check them out! Thank you Calvin: www.thecoderschool.com/locations/glenview/... See MoreSee Less
At last week's club meeting, Jennifer Keen of the Alzheimer's Association spoke about a comprehensive lifestyle approach to support brain health and potentially lower the risk of cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease. Key elements of this approach include:
• The MIND Diet: Focuses on plant-based foods linked to dementia prevention.
• Sleep and Brain Health: Quality sleep allows the brain to clear out cellular waste and toxic proteins, such as beta-amyloid, which are linked to Alzheimer's disease.
• Word Games and Mental Stimulation: Pairing word games or board games with social interaction provides a greater boost to overall well-being and cognitive reserve.
