Coding Basics
Think. Build. Lead.
This course is designed to introduce students to the fundamentals of coding through interactive lessons and hands-on projects. By exploring both web development and game development, students will not only learn how to write code but also how to think like a programmer—analyzing problems, designing solutions, and building real-world applications. Students will work through structured lessons on core programming concepts and apply their knowledge in two personal projects. The course encourages creativity, logical reasoning, and problem-solving while making coding an exciting and accessible skill.
