👉 Jr. Computing, also known as Junior Computing or Junior Programming, is an educational approach designed to introduce young students, typically in grades 3-5, to the fundamental concepts of computer science and programming. This method uses age-appropriate, interactive tools and activities to make learning accessible and engaging, often through block-based programming languages like Scratch or visual coding platforms. The goal is to foster computational thinking, problem-solving skills, and an early interest in technology by allowing children to create simple programs, understand basic logic, and develop a foundational understanding of how computers work. By starting with intuitive interfaces and gradually introducing more complex concepts, Jr. Computing aims to build a strong base for future learning in computer science and technology.
