Know Your Code Coding and logical reasoning for primary students Enquire Now 💻 Digital Technologies: Algorithmic Thinking Know Your Code Fundamentals of Programming and Game Design How do we communicate with the machines that power our world? In this future-focused workshop, your classroom becomes a development studio. Know Your Code makes computer science accessible to students of all abilities, moving them from passive consumers of technology to active creators of games and apps. By utilizing intuitive block-based programming, students master the logic of loops, variables, and conditional statements without the barrier of syntax errors. We focus on 21st-century skills—problem-solving, persistence, and logical reasoning—that are essential for future career opportunities in any field. Flexible Delivery Options: One-Day Incursions: A high-impact introduction to coding fundamentals. Short Courses: Multi-week programs to build complex projects. Term-Based Learning: Full curriculum integration over a school term. Annual Deep Dives: Comprehensive year-long technology coaching. Syllabus-Linked Success Our lessons are designed to meet Australian Curriculum outcomes for Digital Technologies, led by facilitators who bridge the gap between “it works” and “I understand why.” 4 Million+ Students Inspired since 2004 Check Availability Remote Coding Labs: Interactive virtual coding sessions.

By mastering the fundamentals of algorithmic logic in a real-time programming environment, they develop the 21st-century skills needed to build the apps and games of the future. 1. Algorithmic Sequencing Students begin by learning how machines read data linearly. They program a series of simple, logical steps to achieve specific outcomes, discovering that precision in sequencing is the foundation of all successful software. 2. Logic & Control Using Scratch’s intuitive drag-and-drop interface, students tackle complex control structures. They learn to optimize their code using repeating loops and implement ‘if-then’ statements to give their programs the power to make decisions. 3. Creative Debugging As their skills grow, students apply their logic to creative challenges. Whether building animations or multi-level games, they learn the art of ‘debugging’—using persistence and reasoning to solve problems when their code doesn’t behave as expected.
