💻 Exploring Computer Science & Coding

From Beginner to Advanced – Tailored for Every Learner

I. Digital Literacy Fundamentals

📘 Course Description

This comprehensive course offers a step-by-step journey into the world of computer science and programming, tailored to meet the needs of students of different ages and experience levels. Students will be introduced to how computers work, how code communicates with machines, and how to write basic code using popular programming languages. Students start with foundational concepts and gradually move toward intermediate and advanced programming, depending on their age and ability.

💡 Tools & Languages Used

🧩 Scratch & Block-based coding – Ideal for kids and younger learners.

🐍 Python – Suitable for older students or those with prior experience.

Through guided activities, visual examples, and structured and practical projects, students will explore how to think computationally, solve problems logically, and begin building confidence using digital tools.

Students also explore modern applications such as

🎮 Game design

🌐 Web design

📱 App creation

This course is perfect for students who want to learn to code and start thinking like digital creators and problem-solvers.

II. Advanced programming and IT skills

After completing the Digital Literacy Fundamentals, students advance to more in-depth programming concepts and real-world technology applications.

They will expand their knowledge through focused modules on:

📌 Web Development – HTML/CSS, JavaScript, and front-end frameworks.

📌 Mobile App Development – Swift development for iOS using Xcode, and Building and testing simple apps.

Students will apply their skills through a series of mini projects, culminating in a capstone project that demonstrates their ability to solve problems and create with technology.

🕘 Class Structure & Format

⏱️ Class Duration: 90 minutes per session.

🔁 Frequency: based on student preference and level.

💻 Delivery Format: Available in-person or online

👩‍🏫 Class Size: Small groups or one-on-one instruction
