Learning Tools
At Computhink, our teaching approach is enquiry based and our students are encouraged to think deeper and ask questions about what they are learning, and why they are learning it.
The best way to learn to program is to learn it the fun way! Students are taught scenarios and challenges that are age-appropriate and in topics they can relate to.
1. Computhink Student Portal
All Computhink Students enjoy the use of the Computhink Student Portal. The Student Portal is similar to the SLS used by MOE schools and is Computhink’s proprietary system for our student’s learning needs, where students can log in to find notes, exercises, short videos, and video recordings explaining concepts for the day.
2. Safe and Welcoming Environment
Students will attend their classes onsite. Online classes are available on a case-by-case basis.
Onsite Classes are conducted in our spacious classrooms in Computhink@ToaPayohLibrary.
3. Coding Platform
Minecraft Education Edition accounts are provided (free) for students during the camp. This is where your child will have their own account, and where they will code their daily projects. Students will also practice their python coding inside Replit.
4. Challenges and Assessments
Students will be given coding challenges throughout the 4 days to test their understanding. Our lessons are enquiry based to help your child learn better.
Students will be tested on their understanding via quizzes/ assignments/challenges.
Here’s what your child will experience in the Python Minecraft Coding Adventures Camp:
Experience programming with real-life scenarios using a professional programming language.
Challenge themselves by coding one or more projects every day.
