IMMERSE KIDS IN THE “4TH R”
IN EARLY CHILDHOOD (6-14 YEARS1)

4th R: algoRithmic thinking
(coding: logic, structure, sequence creative expression)

Teaching a generation to CREATE vs. CONSUME1

PROBLEM
Parents have a strong, latent desire for their kids to master computers at the earliest1
in the computer age

HOWEVER, EARLY-CHILDHOOD (5-12 YEARS OLD) COMPUTATIONAL


THINKING/COMPUTER RESOURCES ARE NON-EXISTENT OR COMPLETELY FRAGMENTED
Current coding resources for kids less than 12 years old

VIRTUAL CODING
LOCAL CODING CLASSES
SCHOOLS CLASSES
☓ <10% of US/India Schools ☓ Physical limitations2
have structured computer ☓ Very low student
☓ No standard curriculum engagement3
courses in early childhood
☓ Expensive ☓ Complex for parents to follow
☓ Structured courses focused
on computer literacy vs. ☓ No H2H element - critical for
computational Thinking early childhood development
