About
theCoderSchool Coding Camps include activities such as video game development, robotics, Minecraft coding, Roblox game creation, JavaScript with HTML/CSS, mobile game and app development, and building playable games. Campers work on game design and development, Python utilities and Python games, building websites using HTML/CSS and JavaScript, creating and publishing a Roblox game, building an Obby (obstacle course) in Roblox Studio, creating games in a 3D environment, and learning the programming language Lua. Some camps also involve controlling and building robots, building and programming a Raspberry Pi computer with Python or Scratch, creating AI image recognition bots and coding algorithms that mimic computer intelligence, advanced Java coding, Arduino microcontroller projects with components such as LEDs and sensors, and 3D printing to design and print 3D objects.
• Ages: 8–18 years old
• Schedule: Each day camp runs for a full week, usually starting mid-morning and finishing early afternoon, with some camps offered as a half-day.
theCoderSchool was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Silicon Valley. Its mission statement is that every kid is unique, and the core philosophy is to teach them in the way that fits them best. Camp instructors are Code Coaches® who have successfully gone through theCoderSchool's onboarding process and are coders who teach coding skills to kids. The program describes itself as an after-school custom-learning coding shop with a low ratio of students per coach at camps, a super-small student to teacher ratio (typically 2:1) in the core program, and a mentoring philosophy centered on Code Coaches®. Each camp has recommendations around age and skill level, but all are open to discussion based on the child's experience with coding. Camps include plenty of breaks, such as walks outside or other indoor activities, and end-of-week student demos where campers show their work and critical thinking skills.
theCoderSchool uses platforms and tools such as Scratch, Snap, Python, HTML/CSS, JavaScript, Minecraft, Roblox Studio, Lua, mobile app platforms, mBots or similar robots, Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and 3D printers. Some locations may include a Raspberry Pi computer for campers to bring home, and some locations allow kids to bring their robots home at the end of camp. In addition to in-person camps, theCoderSchool offers after-school coding classes, coding lessons done online, an online spring break camp, Scratch camp, and an AppStream product for newbie coders via an online weekly video format where students can build a simple app via videos and learn STEM concepts via coding.
TheCoderSchool is a longtime partner of the Congressional App Challenge (CAC) and collaborates with CAC to run a national recognition program to identify a handful of the top applications from CAC submissions across the country. It presents a National Top App of the Month selected from hundreds of apps submitted nationwide by students and maintains an App Gallery showcasing student-built apps. The organization has also authored books in collaboration with Simon Basher from Basher Books.
Parent testimonials describe customized curriculum and STEM concepts via coding, engaging online classes, helpful coaches and staff, and kids creating games and continuing to work on them between sessions. Parents also report positive experiences with online spring break camp and Scratch camp, and note that their kids were excited about learning something new.
