Coding and Robotics in the Classroom: Empowering Teachers (Advanced Certification)

The Coding and Robotics in the Classroom: Empowering Teachers (Advanced Certification) course is designed to equip educators with practical skills, confidence, and professional knowledge needed to successfully teach coding and robotics in modern classrooms.

This advanced programme moves beyond theory and focuses on real classroom implementation, helping teachers integrate coding and robotics into everyday teaching while aligning with CAPS curriculum requirements and STEM education practices.

Participants will learn how to teach coding concepts using visual programming tools, implement robotics projects using affordable materials, design meaningful assessments, and manage digital learning environments effectively.

Through classroom-ready resources, lesson plans, assessment tools, and practical projects, teachers can immediately apply their learning in Foundation Phase, Intermediate Phase, and Senior Phase classrooms.

Whether you are a classroom teacher, ICT coordinator, or school robotics programme leader, this course will equip you with the skills and confidence to deliver engaging, future-ready STEM lessons.
