Registration has opened for the nationwide 3rd Term Online Robotics and Coding courses.
As part of the "Bright Minds at Work" project, primary and middle school students will be able to benefit from the 3rd term courses.
Lessons, taught by leading internationally award-winning educators from Türkiye, use unique curricula and content specially prepared for each age group.
The programme, starting on 4 October 2021, will run online for 8 weeks. Applications, open until 1 October, are made by filling in the online form on the foundation's website (www.tacev.org.tr).
In a statement, Project Manager Gürkan Çifcioğlu said: "There are students all over Türkiye who have not yet been introduced to Robotics and Coding. Our goal is to bring these students together with coding at international standards. Even though our first-term programme only began in January, we already have students who have received advanced training and won places in prestigious national competitions."
Çifcioğlu said: "Türkiye now competes with the world in many areas of technology. We must raise our children in line with the demands of this competition. This is not a luxury, it is a necessity. Every family needs to act with this sense of responsibility and make the most of opportunities like this. As a foundation, we offer these students the best possible education through expert instructors and a unique curriculum."
Emphasising that Robotics and Coding contribute to the development of students' problem-solving and analytical thinking skills, Çifcioğlu said: "Thanks to these programmes, students grow up to become business developers, problem solvers and individuals who contribute to work processes in the professions they will pursue in the future."
Noting that successful participants will earn the right to advanced training after the free programme, Çifcioğlu said: "We want our country to be among the best in technology, as in every other field. You cannot reach this goal without sufficient human resources. That is why, through our nationwide programmes, we are striving to help enrich this resource."
