CODERDOJO KINSALE IS PART OF THE CODERDOJO MOVMENT

CoderDojos are free, volunteer-led, community based programming clubs for kids
between 7 and 17. At our Dojo, Ninjas learn how to code, develop websites, apps,
programs, games and explore technology in an informal and creative environment.

WHAT HAPPENS AT A DOJO?


SELF GUIDED

One of the great things about CoderDojo is how it flips the classroom concept.
There’s no lecturing or traditional teaching. Ninjas (students) learn on their
own as well as from each other. We provide resource cards called “Sushi cards”
that they can use to learn new skills.




SOCIAL GOOD

As they advance, Ninjas are required to create projects that contribute to the
“social good”. For example, they can create a new website that benefits the
local community or create an app that helps their school. This reinforces the
practical benefits that can come from technology.




PEER LEARNING

Ninjas work at their own pace to create their code projects. We reinforce peer
learning with one of our main mottoes, “Ask three, then me”. Helping others is
also a core requirement for progressing through our belt grading.

CODERDOJO BELTS


RECOGNIZING NINJA’S PROGRESS

Belts are awarded to show the progress of a Ninja through the Dojo, covering
multiple disciplines from learning to take first steps in IT up to, and
including, teaching and the designing of their own projects. We take Ninjas at
any level from beginners to those who would like to learn to pass on their
skills.

CODERDOJO KINSALE

The CoderDojo movement believes that an understanding of programming languages
is increasingly important in the modern world, that it’s both better and easier
to learn these skills early, and that nobody should be denied the opportunity to
do so.
