Kids Code Jeunesse/ McGill control group for HTML: 9-12 yr olds
Your child will be learning a condensed version of our HTML classroom course lessons (minus Intro to computers, debugging, class collaboration and presentation).
We want to observe the learning difference between kids learning to code in a collaborative classroom setting with experts (which is what we do in schools) vs learning independently with minimal guidance. The control group will be learning with minimal guidance, lead by Maude Lemaire, a McGill software engineer. After the control lesson is complete, if the children haven’t completed their project, we have time at the end of the day to make sure they do!
