Luxoft provided us with a training room in Moscow (m. Oktyabrskoe pole), where we want to hold the first in-person meeting of those interested in developing the project. The event will be held on October 2 from 19:00 to 21:00. At the meetings we will briefly talk about the goals, show how lessons are going about, tell you about the nuances of teaching children and think about how to develop most effectively.

About what we want


To teach every child in Russia programming skills and digital creativity, making this learning interesting for the child himself, using the example of creating cartoons, computer games and websites on the Internet.

About what has already been done


  1. Pilots with a school 1220 and the Otradnoe social rehabilitation center have been worked out.
  2. 57 children are full-time students.
  3. Formed a draft methodology.

About what we want to do


There are the following main areas.

Teachers

To open 100 clubs we need 100 teachers.

Who can become a teacher?

Any adequate person who loves children. Primary school teachers, child psychologists, students and developers come to us. We can choose the format for anyone.

Schools

To open 100 clubs we will need 100 children's institutions.

Not all schools are ready, not everyone understands why this is necessary. We want to form a pool of schools that have shown interest and dock them with volunteers that live or work together. Someone should go to these schools, explain, negotiate.

Methodology

In order for children to have something in their heads, we need people who understand pedagogy. There are many ready-made methodologies, many new ideas and many tasks where all this needs to be reduced to a single whole, to build a systematic approach.
