בקורס "אתגרי חשיבה ותכנות" הילדים ילמדו את הצעדים הראשונים בעולם התכנות בפלטפורמה חדשנית הנראית כמו משחק מחשב.
On the platform, the children will be exposed to visual programming tasks that will be solved by writing the correct commands.
The study takes place in a safe learning environment (kid safe) built as a computer game.

The course is designed for children aged 6 and over.
The entire course is structured in an experiential and fun way that includes tasks and challenges that are presented in the form of a computer game.
The course includes 14 lessons that include tasks and programming challenges that the children perform while playing.

Simplifying concepts: to explain to the children the importance of concepts in the world of programming, the teacher teaches the concepts in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

Studio for building games - why play a computer game if you can build your own?
As part of an exercise, the children will build several stages of a game that include characters, obstacles and surprises.
The students will receive a challenge: to build a stage in the game that will not be too easy nor too difficult and challenging enough so as not to bore the player.

The students who wish will be able to share their game online through the safe community of the platform.

Tracking student results: each student will receive a user name in the system that allows the teacher to track the individual progress of each student.
During the game, the children will accumulate virtual coins that they will use in the next step called Game Maker.

The use of the platform is subject to payment.
For course students, the platform is free of charge.
