Stop-Hack-Go
Hands-on computer science, cybersecurity, and AI for 6th–12th grade and college learners—powered by Raspberry Pi Pico, electronics, and a self-hosted classroom chatbot.
Our Purpose
We bring computer science, cybersecurity, and AI education to 6th–12th grade and college learners in a way that is fun and engaging—using hands-on hardware, real coding, and ethical AI.
What Is Stop-Hack-Go?
Stop-Hack-Go uses Raspberry Pi Pico and electronic components—LEDs, resistors, cables, and a multimeter—to expose learners to computer science concepts like coding (MicroPython), cybersecurity (e.g. WiFi vulnerabilities, code vulnerabilities, and critical infrastructure), and AI. A self-hosted LLM runs on a closed network and serves a chatbot so students can explore AI in a safe, offline environment. We also discuss the ethical use of AI—using it to solve problems and not cause harm.
