Computer science since inception has established its, root as the past, present and the future of human development and technology; Thus making learning computer coding more of a culture than science.
A culture that has descended from decades and will be delivered to generation to come; computer coding is now a universal language that has surpassed common language and geopolitical barriers.
Learning computer programming since a young age can be seen as a development of future. A child who acquires the ability to use computer codes is an asset to future computer development and evolution. Apart from having opportunities that can be both, a carrier or a way of life.
How programming helps a young mind to function is vital to understand. The brain that developed computer can master it and so it must.
So here are four benefits that learning programming at a young age can give:
- Computational ability: to compute and to communicate computable data is the brilliance of mind and to be able to express thoughts in a logical and well-structured manner is genius of mind. Learning Computer coding enhances your computing ability. It helps you to boost your thinking power and ability to solve a given problem; now this issue can be any subject or even ordinary day life equations. It enhances your mental ability to approach a situation or question. Most competitive examination applies this method of problem-solving.
- Education: Computer science is introduced in schools at the elementary level. Most of the schools now use computer programming at a basic level to help kids master or manage a computer system. When kids learn to command a machine, they learn not only coding, but they are learning management abilities. Achieving success in controlling a computer system using codes gives kids the joy of being successful which is vital throughout their education years to come.
- Innovation and creativity: minds of young children are very creative. Kids have the power to think beyond convention. Their imagination is beyond perception. Computer codes have different approaches. There are multiple ways to solve or code a program. Learning various possibilities enhances these young minds to think more creatively and generate new methods or solutions. Kids can learn to code just like a story. Each story has a beginning, a plot to progress and then an ending. Similarly, they a derive beginnings, progression, and end to a code. This enhances the communication( both oral and written )skills of a kid.
- Future Opportunity: Finding a suitable job and being able to earn a living is the ultimate goal of all education and learning. With fast paving technology, our generation and generations to come must be literate and efficient in understanding these techniques and progress with it. A person competent in computer programming has excellent job prospects. Information Technology is a career in itself that is based on mastering computer coding.
Well, beyond doubt I feel that learning programming helps in the all-round development of a child. The mind is the center, if you train your mind to code and learning the concepts in which coding is based, innovation in technology will be a tree that will blossom every season.
