The Newton Free Library will offer CodeCampKids for kids entering Grades 5-7, to take them from NO experience in coding to creating their own basic app pages. It will meet August 6, 10, 17, and 25. Unfortunately the registration list, which opened three days ago, is already filled, as is the waiting list. Clearly there’s more demand for courses that introduce Newton’s kids to coding!
For those who did not get into the camp, there are many online resources for learning various aspects of coding. Here’s a list from Infoworld and other sources:
- Free: MIT’s Scratch, Kahn Academy, w3schools.com, MIT Open Courseware, Programmr, Google’s HTML Rocks, The Code Player, Code Academy, Code.org
- Free for introductory sessions, with fees for other sessions: Code Avengers, Code School
