We believe that anyone can learn to code!
During this course, your child will learn the basics of programming and master visual coding while creating computer games and working on increasingly complex projects with the help of our dedicated instructors.
Kids will work on various projects using visual coding and will build programs with colorful blocks. With the help of this introductory method, kids can learn the basics of programming in a fun and engaging manner. After having completed the course, kids can continue their journey on the path to professional, text-based coding through increasingly challenging modules. The course is also useful for acquiring life skills besides coding, such as algorithmic and analytical thinking.
What will your child learn:
Going through basic mathematical principles in a playful way, implementing theory in practice
Learning how to repeat commands by using loops
Using conditions and if-statements
Getting familiar with built-in variables and enabling them to get the attributes of objects and backdrops and measure time and positioning
Getting familiar with local variables and data handling
Understanding basic logic operators (and, or, not) enabling them to create more refined conditions
Understanding and creating game functionalities
Using different starting events for a program to begin
Learning how to use signals to make game characters communicate with each other
Creating clones, using copies of game actors (clones)
Learning to use the Cartesian coordinate system
Getting familiar with the concept of lists, and how to use it for data storage
Developing the knowledge of text handling
Moving game objects and characters on a specified stage
Problem-solving and algorithmic thinking
Self-confidence
Focus and precision
Concentration and perseverance
Communication
Technical requirements
For online courses: A laptop or a computer with internet connection and a Chrome browser, plus a built-in or external microphone. We recommend having a headset and a webcam too.
