What do kids learn in online coding classes?

Online programming camps and classes help children achieve their full potential in computer science. Coding activities engage all STEM disciplines, and as children improve their skills, their knowledge within each discipline grows. Java, Python, Scratch, and C++ are languages used both creatively and analytically, growing children’s hard and soft skills. Basic coding concepts help children write small or large-scale codes, ranging from small circuits to video game design.

Math and problem solving skills are important in these programs. Camps and classes that offer coding within a wider curriculum offer further education in math, engineering, and robotics.

Thanks to the online setting, students only require a computer, a working webcam, and the required software(s). In some cases, materials will be delivered to families directly. Prices for coding classes start from $30 per lesson, while some are free! Training in more advanced classes is, expectedly, more costly, ranging from $100 to $700 and higher. Programs are available to children between the ages of 5 and 18 and are welcome to both boys and girls.

Consult with individual programs listed above to learn what they teach.

About advanced online coding classes

Advanced online coding classes prepare students for careers in computer science or STEM disciplines. Possible pursuits for young programmers include science, math, engineering, space travel, or web design. Children learn basic coding concepts such as loops, syntax, variables, and sequences, before progressing to advanced levels where teens create university-level projects.

Children will also graduate from Scratch, an example of a platform for beginner programmers, to Arduino and other more complicated languages and platforms As you sort through programs listed above, notice the requirements for each course, as some classes may require previous coding experience. Advanced classes embrace children of all ages, backgrounds, and genders.

Why enroll in online coding classes?

Virtual programs never cease to provide students with similar, if not the same, education as in-person classes. Here are a few benefits of online coding classes:

Convenience of virtual classes is self-evident, as students only need a computer and webcam to participate. Students in other cities, districts, or even provinces may join.
Look ahead at career opportunities. Instructors’ in-depth knowledge of the past, present, and future of AI technology gets kids and teens thinking about their future. They can take a role now and ongoing in the development of emerging technologies.
Personalized feedback is very quick due to the fast-paced nature of online learning. Instructors provide feedback in real time, which improves children’s skills faster.

Solving problems in creative and innovative ways is constant in these programs. Children use critical thinking skills to manage, organize, and solve problems as they arise. Skills translate to children’s academic careers in math or science.
