Computer Programming for Kids
Posted: Fri Aug 14, 2020 7:33 pm
I hope this isn't considered "spam" or whatever. I want to let people know about "Computer Programming for Kids," a newsletter I'm writing that is hosted at kidslearnprogramming.substack.com
Many of the posts are free to all; the rest are for subscribers only.
There will be four main sections of the "Steps" that teach "kids" programming:
1) Windows Forms apps using the C# programming language
2) Database technology using the SQL data manipulation language
3) Web Technology using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
4) Mobile/Phone apps using Java on the Android platform
In each of these, readers can follow along and build a project. Real-World Programming practices, concepts, and principles are discussed as they come up while building these projects. The projects are:
1) A Windows Forms app that presents Multiple-choice questions
2) A Database app that allows users to "slice and dice" a set of data, showing the States of the United States as an example data set (Size, Population, When entered the Union, etc.)
3) A Website that allows people to search for movies based on genre, ratings, etc.
4) A Mobile that is actually a secret because I hope to monetize it and don't want to give my idea away
