Less Text, More Understanding

The robotics, visual programming and programming games are focused on appealing to visual, tactile and experiential learners.

Students still learn real industry programming (JavaScript and Python), however they don't need to to focus on memory or staring at walls of text - everything is physical or works like a computer game.
