KTBlocks Creation Week-long Course

Full Course

Class Package

Class Project(s)

Students will make a project in Javablocks that will be presented to the class.

Our Proprietary In-Browser Coding Platform.

The KTBYTE team developed the KTCoder™ with our students in mind! Our platform supports block-based and typed out code in the most popular coding languages: Java, Python, and C++. This revolutionary all-in-one coding platform supports our interactive online classes, our specialized curriculum, and (most importantly) our students' passion for learning.

Audio Lectures

We provide pre-recorded Audio Lectures to allow for students to self-study, practice, and learn CS.

Class Recordings

We provide recordings of our classes for if a student misses or needs to re-listen to a class.

Class Description:

This week-long course is suitable for students ages 10+ with fair typing proficiency (10-20 WPM) and are comfortable with trial-and-error experimentation. This course will be taught using KTBlocks, our block-based coding platform tailor-made for easy transition into typed Java, Python or C++ programming. Students with prior exposure to other block-based platforms (code.org, Scratch, Tynker) will find this course useful for transitioning to "typed-out" programming languages. Essential math and computing concepts (coordinates, state variables, conditionals, loops) will be taught, Students will learn to create various fun and interactive graphical projects. By the end of this course, students will create their own project / game with basic logic and game states.

Prerequisites:

10+ WPM typing speed and 5th grade math proficiency, or permission or instructor
