P21S-AiQM Advanced Computer Scientists (Quiz Me)
Advanced Computer Scientists Programmes
Our upper primary Advanced Computer Scientists programmes are specially designed with Coding Lab's proprietary award-winning, MIT-Inspired curriculum to build foundations for children to grasp new programming language with real-world content.
About the Programme
The Advanced Computer Scientists programme develops students to the next level of programming. Students will now deep dive into app creation for both iOs and Android, develop the maker in them with our extensive micro:bit curriculum, and model advanced concepts across syntax-based programming to create tangible, real-world products.
Course Outline
In this research area, students will dive into creating their own Quiz Game using MIT App Inventor, with exciting themes ranging from Science to Harry Potter and Marvel. They'll apply design thinking principles to craft a user-friendly quiz flow and develop a diverse question bank. Adding fun features like adjustable difficulty levels, score tracking, vibrant visuals, sound effects, and a restart button will give their quizzes a professional touch.Programme Schedule (Term 3 - 2024)

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Coding Lab Programmes
What is coding?
Coding is instructing the computer to work in a language that it understands. There are various coding languages that a computer uses; just like how we use English or our Mother Tongue to communicate with our family and friends. The fundamentals of all these languages are the same – the ability to break down problems into smaller pieces (decomposition), think logically and give step-by-step instructions (algorithmic thinking) to the computer.
Why should my child learn coding?
Coding is considered the “new literacy” by many education institutions around the world. Educators and experts agree that it is an important subject that every child needs to grasp in order to thrive in school and life, whether or not they eventually pursue a career in Computer Science. Logical thinking and problem-solving are also important skills that they pick up in the course of learning to code.
Is the Coding Lab curriculum suitable for my child?
Every child is different, and our way of teaching recognises this. Our tutors are trained to inspire complete newbies to program, to challenging gifted students in their work. Every child can learn to code, and the Coding Lab ® programme is rigorously designed to fit their different ability levels and learning styles, such that every child can create programs they can be proud of.
What are the qualifications of your teachers?
Coding Lab ® teachers are typically hail from Top Universities such as MIT, Carnegie-Mellon, Cornell, SUTD, NUS, NTU, SMU and so on. All teachers undergo intensive training in educating students the Coding Lab ® way, as well as the curriculum before they are assigned to a class.
What is the difference between Holiday Camps, Accelerated and Regular Weekly classes?
There is no difference in the content covered for either Holiday Camps or Regular Classes. We run both types of classes to cater to the different needs of students, and the material is exactly the same for the same module (Eg. P101 Scratch 1) covered. Parents may choose a combination of classes that suit their schedule best.
What is your average class size?
Our classes have the maximum teacher to student ratio of the following:
- Preschool (Ages 5-6) 1:6
- Primary School (Ages 7-12) 1:8
- Secondary/JC (Ages 13-18) 1:10
We keep our classes small so that every student benefits from maximum personalised attention.
