There are several ways to teach children computer science and programming through the internet. From today you can also add CS First program Google studies.
It is one free πρόγραμμα που περιέχει μια ποικιλία θεμάτων για όλα τα ενδιαφέροντα των παιδιών.
The CS First is not new (the program started last year), but it worked as a program for teachers and community volunteers who wanted to program computer science clubs for children aged 9 to 14 years. That's why you may not have heard of it until today.
Courses include topics such as: Music & Audio (create a music video and develop an interactive screen music), Fashion and design to develop fashion apps, Storytelling to create interactive stories, and Game Design to teach your kids to design and program a game. There are still quite a few lessons. If you are interested you can find them for free on the project page.
CS First provides free, easy-to-use computer science (CS) enrichment materials that target and engage a diverse student population.
Όπως βλέπετε στην παραπάνω επεξήγηση της εταιρείας τα μαθήματα δεν αποσκοπούν μόνο στην εκμάθηση προγραμματισμού, αλλά περιλαμβάνουν ένα ευρύ φάσμα γνώσεων από την επιστήμη των υπολογιστών (computer science (CS). Όλα τα υλικά (βίντεο, προγραμματισμός σε Scratch, και lesson plans) είναι διαθέσιμα δωρεάν στο διαδίκτυο, και έτσι μπορούν όλοι γονείς και παιδιά να ξεκινήσουν άμεσα μαθήματα στο home.
Encourage your children to try out Google's alternative home schooling from here. Of course, as the article titles mention, lessons are not just for children.
