Helping kids (boys and girls) 7 to 12 years old to learn the fundamentals of programming in a creative and fun environment.
Program Goals:
-Understand fundamental programming concepts like algorithms, repeat loops, conditionals, and variables.
-Use creativity and computational thinking to make games and solve challenging puzzles.
-Have fun, be self-motivated, and work well with others.
Some Topics Covered:
-Algorithms are the steps required to solve a problem or complete a task.
-Repeat Loops allow us to repeat certain repetitive tasks using less code.
-Debugging means going through code step by step to find bugs and squash them.
-Conditionals tell the computer to run certain bits of code only if a certain condition is true.
-Variables are values that can change, and they help us make games more fun and apps more useful.
