It’s not as hard for them to transform their thought processes as it is for older students . Breaking down problems into bite-sized dunks and using code to solve them becomes normal. Giving more children this training could increase the number of people interested in the field and help fill the jobs gap, Cortina said.

　　Students also benefit from learning something about coding before they get to college, where introductory computer science classes are packed to the brim, which can drive the less -experienced or &ndashdetermined students saw the Flatirm school , where people pay to learn programming, students one of the many coding boot camps that’s become popular for audlts looking for a career change .The high &ndashschoolers get the same carriculom,but”we try to gear lesons toward things they’re interested in,”said Victoria Fridman, an instructors.
