Kids Learn Coding From a Robot

There is a robot that is teaching kids how to code by using a special program made up of symbols and colors. The kids put the symbols and colors in different orders to give root directions, and the program has three levels of difficulty. Zivthan Dubrovsky, from Harvard Wyss Institute, claims that kids can make a text-based java script line follower on level one, and it is accomplished in minutes. Dubrovsky hopes that this robot will be introduced in the classroom, so learning coding will be as common as reading and writing.
