CoderDojo
Crescents of Brisbane
is a place for young people between the ages 7 to 17
to learn to code, develop websites, apps, games and more!
The programme takes young people out of their
bedrooms and ignites their intelligence. The club-class atmosphere
encourages them to share their knowledge, doubts and ideas, and
makes them eager to attend further sessions.
Like
minded children interact with each other, and this is especially
beneficial for the children who often feel left out as they are more
interested in technology than sports or music.
At
these session attendees have the opportunity to also learn
complimentary skills of logical thinking problem solving,
presentation and communication skills. Here is a focus on community,
peer learning, mentorship and self-led learning with an emphasis on
openness, helping others and showing how coding is a force for
change in the world.
More
importantly the CoderDojo
is about encouraging creativity and having fun with technology in a
social environment.
Our CoderDojo aims to make development and
learning to code fun, sociable and a rewarding experience.
Each
session is mentored by
Crescents of Brisbane
volunteers and school students who are willing to give up time to
help out some young people passionate about learning how to code,
learn about technology and more.
Our CoderDojo enables and
empowers young people to truly develop their skills as creators and
inventors of technology through supporting a child led, exploratory
learning environment.
Children can
learn important skills that will really benefit them in the future.
And the best feature about CoderDojo
Crescents of Brisbane is that it is absolutely free! How many
activities can you find for young boys and girls these days that are
free? |
