In this video, I share the full behind-the-scenes of why it took over 2 years to create the Decode the Drawings competition and Computational Problem-Solving course.

I explain how how painting balls led to a vision-based positioning system. I also share what worked and what not and how I kept myself motivated through countless setbacks.

If you’re a teacher, creator, or lifelong learner, I hope this inspires you!
