Class Experience

This is a private class for Goefe D.A. Junior High School and Gbekor Senior High School in the Adaklu region of Ghana per request.

Class is introduction to coding. Over six sessions we will cover:

- What is coding?
- Introduction to Snap coding platform
- Basic coding principles (variables, loops, general control)
- Build our first project
- Introduction to web and location based coding

The class will focus on project based learning to allow students to get experience with building real code for the real world. We will do a mix of game based projects and location based projects.

The goal is to give the students a basic understanding and skill of coding to use for further study in computer science.

Class breakdown

Session 1: What is coding? We'll go through Snap and learn about the various blocks. We'll put toghether a simple program.
Session 2: Control blocks. Today we'll learn about how to use control blocks to control the flow of program execution

Hello Fellow Learners!

My name is Mounir Shita - but you can call me Mo (trust me, it is scientifically proven to be easier to pronounce). I have been amazed and intrigued by thinking machines since I was a teenager. As an adult, I've made it my career to research and develop thinking machines.

I've spent over 20 years researching real thinking machines, built a lot of technology, started my own "AI" companies and even been involved in government "AI" programs. 

In Outschool I hope to contribute to make you curious science, especially intelligent machines. I will teach classes ranging from introduction to artificial intelligence and thinking machines, to ethics (is it good or bad?) to teaching you how to build your own AI-powered games.
