In ASC’s computer coding classes, highly trained teachers use hands on computer software and programs to teach critical computer science and coding skills to your child no matter their current grade. Children can start learning computer concepts as early as elementary school. In ASC classes, students learn through creating their own codes in collaboration with class members and develop necessary skills to be proficient in skills needed for future careers.
Coding Summer Boot camp
Grades 3-11.
Many of the best, highest paying jobs in 2019 involve computer science. This will only continue to grow in the future; Individuals who have prepared and gained a fundamental understanding of computer science will find the greatest success.
The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that by 2020 there will be more than 1.4 million computing-related job openings. At current rates, however, we can only fill about 30% of those jobs with U.S. computing bachelor’s grads.
With computing jobs among the fastest-growing and highest-paying, we need to prepare our youth for computer science careers.
But are schools preparing children now for these careers?
NO!
Why?
Most teachers aren’t confident teaching higher-level technology skills.
Even though teachers see great value in their students learning higher-level technology skills like data analytics, computer programming languages, website design/creation and robotics, educators aren’t confident in their ability to teach these skills. Only 10% of K–12 teachers surveyed nationally feel confident incorporating higher-level technology into student learning. This data held true across grade level, school affluence, and teacher experience level.
Technology-related courses are not offered to many high school students, even though educators say the courses are beneficial.
