[quote=Anonymous]I found zero value in the three coding camps DS did. Coding is one of those magic things that is ideal for learning on your own. It’s easier to find instructions on your own, they are pretty easy to follow in written form (like pausing a YouTube video to copy something down) and the biggest thing is that know immediately whether or not you have messed up. With an online group class it’s hard for a teacher to really see where you went wrong in your code, and of course if you don’t understand something you either have to look it up on your own or ask the teacher, taking up class time from everybody else who is ready for the next step. And in one of my kids’ coding classes, he was told to watch a 45-minute video and follow the instructions on his own. This didn’t happen :) But I suppose DS did have fun. And he learned some things. But I’m not doing online coding camps anymore. [/quote]
