What They'll Be Able to Do

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my child need any coding experience to start Module 1?

No — Module 1 is the starting point of Python for Kids. For most learners this is their first real, non-block-based programming language.

Can my child do just this module, or do they need to commit to all 4?

Module 1 stands on its own — it's a complete 10-hour introduction to Python. Many learners continue on to Module 2, but there's no obligation to.

How does this fit into the full Python for Kids course?

This is Module 1 of 4 in the full Python for Kids pathway. See the full course overview for how all 4 modules fit together across Explorer and Pioneer Coders.
