Cyber Protection Challenge kickoff
Details
Together with Zurich Insurance we would like to invite you to kickoff of Cyber Protection Challenge.
We will meet in a beautiful location at Zurich Development Center.
Please register also at: https://airtable.com/shrgpgkC34Rmj2CLV to provide more information. This is a required step.
The registration is open until Monday 18th March.
3 workshop groups will be available
Lightbot - The Lightbot group workshop is dedicated to the youngest ninjas and complete beginners - up to 9 years old or so.
For older Ninjas we recommend the Scratch or Lua groups.
Scratch - workshop dedicated to a bit older ninjas (starting from 9-10 years old), who are just starting with computers and the ones who already used computers a bit. If you played with Lightbot or Scratch before, this is a good place to develop your skills.
Python/Lua - introduces Ninjas to programming using text tools. It works best for ninjas starting from 12-14 years old and up, who are already comfortable with using the keyboard and typing text on a computer.
Please bring one laptop per child with a keyboard that they can "read" (i.e. the keys correspond to what appears on screen) and a mouse.
A browser with working flash is required.
If you're not sure about it, follow this link ( https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html ) on the computer you will bring to CoderDojo and press the yellow button. If you need help, please come to the help desk before the beginning of the workshop and let us check.
Children 12 years and under should be accompanied by a parent or other enthusiastic adult (who is also encouraged to bring his or her laptop and play & program, too.)
