Digikids

Digikids teaches young people what programming involves and what they can achieve with it. Lessons are built around practical skills instead of theory. The organisers want children to enjoy their learning.

What Digikids offers

• Programming lessons — hands-on teaching of coding for the younger generation.
• Practical projects — emphasis on making things work over abstract study.
• Teamwork skills — children learn to work in groups and help one another.
• Presentation and repair skills — pupils practise fixing and presenting their own work.
• Learning by doing — children are expected to enjoy the lessons, which put building things ahead of theory.

Who it works with

The programme is aimed at children and young people. Its organisers want pupils to see what programming is for and what they can do with the knowledge, and they teach group work alongside the code itself.
