3D DESIGN & CODING
Coding
Studies have shown children who study computer science perform better in other subjects, excel at problem-solving, and are 17% more likely to attend college. Recent research also demonstrates positive links between learning computer science with CS Fundamentals and reading comprehension, problem-solving, and planning skills. Just like architecture, which is an art used by people daily and affects their everyday life, so is code. We will solve the problems with playing games and learn coding at the same time, You will enjoy this summer!!!
3D Model Design
3D design is a great way to get kids thinking about problem-solving, special skills, and critical thinking, all essential concepts when teaching kids to code. 3D design and printing is a great way to get artistic kids into coding and computational thinking.
