More Info
Bits & Bytes is a program run by undergraduate volunteers at Boston University where we teach free coding lessons for students of any gender in grades 3-12.
For Bits (3rd-5th grade), students will learn the basics of computer science principles through MIT-created learning platform Scratch and learn to transfer their skills into the Python programming language. Bits allows young students to learn basic coding skills in a fun and interactive way!
For Bytes (6th-12th grade), students will learn computer science fundamentals in Python such as loops, functions, and recursion and use these skills during lessons and assignments. Since much of what we go over is similar to what an intro level college computer science class would cover, this is a great opportunity to prepare students for AP Computer Science or a degree in computer science!
