Topics Covered
Foundations of Blockchain Build a blockchain node using Solidity (the preferred programming language for Ethereum) Alter the blockchain - valid vs not valid - What is immutability? Build 3 nodes & add nonce - Understand Hash algorithms Proof of work vs Proof of stake - how does solving Math problems Private key + Public key - How to keep your data secure on the Blockchain?

Blockchain
Age 12-17
Why Blockchain ?
Helps your child stay abreast of latest technology stacks
Sets them up for success and advantage to lead high school clubs
Empowers them to have intelligent conversations among peers and participate in Tech discussions
Your child will build her/his own blockchain and gain hands-on experience Start the new year with a new skill!
Scratch is a block-based visual programming language and website targeted primarily at children 7-11 as an educational tool for coding. In creating projects on Scratch , young people create animated stories, interactive games and dynamic simulations.
In the process of creating their projects, students develop computational thinking skills and also broader life skills, known as the four Cs —Creativity, Communication, Collaboration and Critical thinking.
How It Works
Class Concepts
1. Analyze Blockchain Algorithm 2. Learn concepts & usage of Solidity - the preferred programming language for Blockchain 3. Understand cryptocurrency implementations and uses 4. Develop coding and logical thinking skills.
Class Structure
We match three children of similar ages or skill levels in a group with one tutor. Groups meet for one-hour and half sessions, and children will see the same tutor every day for consistency.
It teaches concepts like parallelism and event handling, algorithmic thinking that helps succeed in the hardest classes.Uses iteration and boolean logic while building games and stories.
They learn to write clean code and do all of the things that a text-based coder can do.
Automatically instills in them discipline such as debugging and documentation in a fun environment
We focus on algorithmic thinking rather than syntax for a coding language. Students don’t just learn computer programming, they also learn problem solving and how to think like a programmer.
Class size is fixed at 3 which is ideal for kids to be in a social co-learning environment. Instructors are trained to encourage the kids to participate and help each other - just like a real life team
PROGRAM OUTCOMES : By the end of the course, students will develop algorithmic thinking to solve problems. Students will create, share Scratch projects. They learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively.
My child feels much more confident in his math and coding skills. He is excited about the lessons and enjoys them immensely. Ann goes out of her way and continues to accommodate all my requests as a parent.
