CoderDojo is a global network of free, volunteer-led, community based coding clubs for children aged between 7 and 17. At CoderDojos young people learn how to code, develop websites, apps, games and more, in a social, collaborative learning environment. Volunteers, that are passionate about technology and its real world applications, mentor the sessions sharing their knowledge and expertise with the kids. Dojos are guided by just one rule: “Above all, be cool.”
While the demand for skilled computer programmers is ever increasing in the modern economy, and the interest of kids to learn to code is high, the traditional school environment can’t always cater for this. CoderDojo makes development and learning to code a fun, sociable and collaborative experience.
