Scratch Coding
Why do children need to learn coding?
In this age of technology, Coding is a skill that is becoming as important as reading and writing. Learning to code develops in children the ability to solve problems, think analytically and logically. Coding uses the same part of the brain as Maths - logical thinking. So a child who is good in maths, will be be good in coding and vice-versa.
MACHINE LEARNING & ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Children these days are fascinated by Siri, Alexa, Google Home and the like. They think these applications are super smart and have all the information. This course will help students not only understand how AI technology works but also make them feel that they have the agency to teach machines. For instance, as children start to train their own models for facial or gesture recognition, they will begin to understand that AI is not magic. They will understand how recommendations are made by Amazon.com or in Youtube. How can predictions be made using AI?
What kind of hands-on projects will students make in this course?
- Teach machines to recognize shapes, images, sounds, text, faces, gestures etc.
- Teach machines to play games, better than humans
- Make a Chatbot to assist the class teacher
- Make a virtual pet that reacts differently when you say nice vs mean things
- Operate electronic devices and appliances at home
Artificial Intelligence
Arduino Smart Tech
Physics + Computer Science
What is Arduino and how is it relevant for a school student?
A lot of children are interested in electronics from a very early age and love to tinker with batteries, leds, motors, any items they can get their hands on. While parents like to nurture their child's curiosity, it is natural to be worried about damage to expensive circuitry or computer parts.
App Making is a practical way to learn coding - students make an exciting range of apps that they can even publish in the Google Play store. In this course, students will start with learning what’s inside a mobile phone and the different kinds of mobile apps and their uses. They will learn to build fully functional apps for Android smartphones starting from simple ones that play sound/image or doodling app or convert text to voice. They will use a phone’s GPS or sensors to make apps that work with location. Some apps will be made using web data, parsing it and displaying it as smart graphs and charts.
We teach App Making using MIT App Inventor, an intuitive, visual, block-based programming tool that is used by over 6.8 million registered users from 195 Countries using MIT App Inventor. Over 24 million apps have been built using this platform.

Python Coding
Vocational Skills Development
Python is a general-purpose coding language—which means that, unlike HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, it can be used for other types of programming and software development besides web development. It can be used for Back end (or server-side) web and mobile and desktop app development. It can process big data and perform mathematical computations. It is widely used in Data Sciences, Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence applications.

My son Krishav has really benefitted from his Coding classes at Makers loft. He has been doing the classes since a few months now and I have seen how his imagination has grown and he has become very comfortable with working on the computer. He looks forward to the classes as the faculty is very friendly & helpful. Thank you MakersLoft.
