2022 STEM Summer Camp
Computer Programming courses and Lego Robotics
Nowadays, computer programming is becoming an extension of writing. As with traditional writing, there are powerful reasons for every child to learn to code:
Learn to code, code to learn!
Become computer-literate, become digital citizens! Are your children ready?

Courses
At Koo Chinese Academy, we have been teaching Computer Programming Camps to hundreds of students for the past seven years with great success! Our kids friendly curriculum and professional computer science teachers teach step-by-step computer programming fundamentals and coding skills as well as creative design to solve real-life programs.
In the past three years, over 100 students participated in our Lego Robotics camps and classes. The feedback from both students and parents are fantastic. The energy and enthusiasm our students showed in classes are simply overwhelming. Students learnt a great deal of science and technology while having a lot of fun!

Blockly Programming Course
|
Blockly was developed by Google and MIT. It is a visual coding language that allows users to create codes by stacking blocks together. These blocks are used to create "chunks of code" that can later be translated into professional textual code. It typically runs in a web browser, and visually resembles the language Scratch.
