Course Description
Teach your kids (and yourself) to code fun, colorful apps and games
in Python, the powerful programming language used at tech companies and
in colleges worldwide. Learn coding step-by-step from Computer Science
Professor Dr. Bryson Payne, author of the book, Teach Your Kids to Code (2015, No Starch Press).
Give Your Kids a Huge Advantage in a High-Tech World
- Quickly master new problem-solving skills in Python with colorful, fun examples
- Teach younger kids to code using Turtle graphics, with text-based games and apps for older learners
- Develop a new creative outlet, building playable games and creating beautiful graphics
- Learn the basics of coding, from variables to loops and functions, with interactive, visually engaging apps
This is the kind of course you can enjoy with your kids!
Packed with fun examples, colorful graphics, and easy-to-follow plain English instruction, Teach Your Kids to Code
is the course parents and kids, teachers and students can enjoy
together, as they build one of the top job skills of the 21st century!
Python is a great first language for beginners, but it's powerful enough
to be used in companies from Google to IBM.
I designed this
programming course to be easily understood by absolute beginners, with
example code I used with my own pre-schoolers all the way through the
apps I teach to college freshmen.
Quick, two- to eight-minute
lessons will get you coding your own apps from scratch in minutes. Over
80 lectures and 6 hours of content will give you the practice you need
to master the powerful new skill of coding.
Everything you need to get started right away
Complete
with working code downloads and high-definition videos, you'll be able
to work alongside a professor with 17 years' teaching experience and
over 30 years of programming knowledge. You'll also receive a
certificate of completion upon finishing the course.
