Module 2: Understanding Algorithms
Have you ever followed a recipe to bake a cake or used instructions to build a LEGO set? If you have, then you have already used an algorithm. In this module, we will explore the “brains” behind all computer programs. An algorithm is a step-by-step set of instructions used to complete a specific task or solve a problem. Computers are very fast, but they are not able to think on their own. They rely on humans to give them clear, correct, and logical instructions. Algorithms help us organise those instructions so computers can perform tasks correctly.

Introduction to Coding for Kids and Their Teachers

Coding is used in many technologies that people use every day. It helps computers and digital devices follow instructions and perform different tasks.

One example is mobile applications. Apps such as messaging apps, maps, music players, and games are created using coding. Programmers write code so that these apps can respond when users tap buttons or type messages.

Another example is websites. Websites are built using programming languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Coding helps websites display text, pictures, videos, and interactive features.

Coding is also used in video games. Game developers write code to control characters, movements, rules, and scores in the game.

Many smart devices also use coding. Devices such as smart TVs, washing machines, microwaves, and digital watches contain programs that help them perform their functions.

These examples show that coding plays an important role in modern technology and in everyday life.
