The course focuses on creativity, teamwork, and curiosity toward technology. This course is designed for beginners and kids who are new to computers, programming, and AI.
Objective of the Course
By the end of this course, students will be able to understand the basic concepts of Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science. They will learn the fundamentals of computers — how they work, how we interact with them, and how they “understand” us.
Students will also develop problem-solving and logical thinking skills, learn the basics of programming, and design their own interactive games using Scratch.
The course aims to inspire creativity, teamwork, and curiosity about technology.
Today, our world runs on programming — from phones to apps to AI — and that’s why it’s so important to teach kids how to code and understand computers from an early age.
