Day 2: Pathway extension class
This class is exclusive to students who are also registered for our Day 1 - Core Coding Class.
Students will work with Python in Term 1 (Autumn) and Web Based Coding in Term 2 (Spring)
We start with a Scratch to Python transition program called Pytch (a Trinity College Dublin project) and then move up to text-based programming using Pygame to create media projects like games.
Python is one of the most popular and important programming languages in the world - Netflix, Instagram, Spotify, all use Python!
Python is also the main programming language being used in Leaving Certificate Computer Science - a few years ahead of our young learners, but a great headstart!
