This course takes students through the basics of computer programming. The aim is to get students to understand the concepts and principles of computer programming; such as logic, sequencing, conditions, loops, routines and algorithms.
To keep the focus on these concepts and principles, which apply to all programming languages, we use a visual programming language, which is really easy to understand and fun to work with.
The instructions that make up the visual programming language are in the form of building-blocks. By combining building-blocks and arranging them in the right order, one is able to create their desired application. It is similar to the popular Lego bricks, but this is done on computers.

CodeCamp was very interesting and was happy to ever come across it. The teacher demonstrated knowledge and skills by providing clear instructions for all activities and was friendly and always smiling when he came to class. I really enjoyed participating in CodeCamp and will always encourage friends to join.

CodeCamp has helped me bear in mind that anything one can imagine, one can also create. Through programming, I have been able to create a game, which I have given to my neighbours and colleagues to entertain them.

The course [Introduction to Programming] I took at CodeCamp has really boosted my creative skills and enhanced my imaginative skills. Using the new approach to software creation, through visual blocks makes coding very easy. Also the writing and reading of algorithms has made me give instructions in a more understandable and straight forward way.

CodeCamp is a good place for students to learn to code, because they have well trained teachers who teach the students perfectly. I also realized that the teachers teach us according to the level of our knowledge in order for us to understand the basic things well.
