Designed to be fun and engaging, the course blends online and non-computer activities to teach students computational thinking, problem-solving and digital citizenship through coding. The course is 15 hours long. During the course, which is ideal for kids aged 7 – 11 years, participants will create their own games, art and digital stories which can then be shared with their family and friends. Kids can make use of any device, including the school tablet. The sessions include ‘unplugged’ activities that teach computational thinking and digital citizenship skills without computers. The course will be delivered in English and Maltese. No prior knowledge is necessary, however we want our little participants to be curious and ready to experiment!
