Coding for Kids

Please note all Coding Camps are conducted by Cobo Academy and conducted in English.

Minecraft Creator (Education Edition): Jul 6 – 10 (Week 2) or Jul 27 – 31 (Week 5)

We’ll challenge your child to build their own interactive 3D world. Not only will they learn how to make weapons and characters, but they’ll also learn how to visualize physics and chemistry along the way! With Minecraft, you can simulate magnets, circuits, a gladiator and more! Despite being a game, Minecraft is a place with absolute creative freedom. We’ ll also pair up Minecraft with MakeCode, where kids can write programs to automate the construction of structures. What’s more? Kids will build circuits and game contraptions for their friends to explore!

In this interactive camp, we’ll have lots of fun with storytelling, science, design and structures.

Device required: iPad / Macbook / PC + charger with Minecraft Education installed (Devices can be borrowed on campus)

AI Fundamentals: Jul 20 – 24 (week 4)

Join this course to create cool stories, games and animations that help your child hone their algorithmic and sequential thinking, while they understand and apply fundamental programming concepts like loops, conditions and variables – all through a block-based programming interface, as they practice their typing skills & computational awareness.

What’s more? From hearing & translating text/speech (Speech & Optical Character Recognition) to using computer vision to identify objects, emotions & brands to even detecting whether you’re wearing a mask through the camera, students get to explore artificial intelligence, training data and how machines use information to learn & predict results on their own!
