A varied range of recreational courses after classes have finished makes it possible for children and young students to pursue special interests and talents. After school there is also the possibility to do homework and prepare for tests with the support of a teacher.
Coding and Robotics 1
14. June 2023 –3:00 pm - 15. July 2024 –5:00 pm
Description
As technology becomes more prevalent in our lives, coding is becoming a valuable if not necessary 21st century skill, revolutionizing every aspect of today’s world – think self-driving cars, robot-assisted surgery, social media, banking, the environment, and more.
Coding empowers kids of all ages to become makers of technology by tapping into their ability to bring their imagination to life.
Kids and teens who code excel at school in math and science, even reading, while developing a skill that will prepare them for future job opportunities.
Students will use a series of learning platforms to understand any apply fundamental concepts such as sequencing, abstraction, repetition, conditional statements, loops, and functions, while building their own digital games and animations.
Lego Robotics: Design a Smart City of the future
During the LEGO Robotics Club portion of the club, students will design, build, and code a smart city of the future. The main challenges that they will face will be ecology, life safety, modern buildings and effective use of natural resources. They will create the robots that help to make cities more comfortable, cleaner and safer for their inhabitants.
Every week will bring a unique model to life using the LEGO WeDo 2.0 toolbox which will then be programmed using a blocked-based coding language.
