Coding
Coding is an activity in which an individual creates a program to design a video game, software, application, etc. Understanding the syntax used to be very difficult in older days, and successful programmers would be considered a ‘rare species.’ This scenario has undergone a drastic change in the past few years, especially over the period of the last decade.
Do you intend to ask, “How come?”
The answer to this question is that many programming training institutes have taken the shape of Ed-tech platforms that offer online courses in coding or programming over the past decade. These online coding classes are conducted in audio-visual learning sessions for kids. A trainer or coding instructor communicates with the child on-screen during the session and teaches coding using various innovative and exciting methods rather than the conventional and boring text-based programming. The latest ‘interesting’ method to teach coding to kids is colorful blocks-based coding. A program is divided into smaller bits displayed on colorful blocks against the extended, plain syntax used to take a programmer’s interest away in no time in the past. This new teaching method to kids has many benefits – not just for teaching artificial intelligence to kids but also in real-life situations.
