Reasons to Teach – Academic Performance
Teaching Coding to K-12 LearnersPlay Episode
Description
Besides soft skills, learning to code is important because it can also help improve young learners’ academic performance like mathematic and writing skills. In this episode, we will further explore more reasons to teach coding to young learners by getting to know the importance of programming learning to them. Throughout the process of learning, young learners can learn complex and abstract concepts through putting programming into practice. Coding exercises can also remind them to always come up with a plan before writing, so they can learn to write in a more concise way to accomplish their goals. Learning to code not just teaches young learners tech skills, but also provides them with more opportunities to perform better in different subjects.
