Start your child on Python using one of the most popular games of this generation – Minecraft
Consistently ranked #1 as the “Most Popular Coding Language“, learning Python will enable your child to build programs that are used widely today in many domains; Eg. Web Development, Data Science and Artificial Intelligence.
In this course, children will use Minecraft, a global sensation which had captivated a generation of children, as a starting point. This engages students and imparts to them the knowledge of Python programming.
Using a context which they are familiar with, students will learn the basics of programming – the syntax and structure, in an engaging and fun way.
Give your child a head start with Python workshops, which will put him/her in good stead for the upcoming launch of Computing as a subject in the GCE “O” Levels in 19 schools in Singapore, starting from 2017.
