A computer coding school for kids and teens that has trained more than 19,000 students in 11 countries recently opened in Naples, where the first two such schools in the U.S. are planned.
Logiscool Naples is now training the next generation of coders at Naples Accelerator, 3510 Kraft Road. The first Logiscool opened in 2014 in Budapest, Hungary, and it has since grown to more than 50 schools that instruct children ages 6-18. The curriculum is digital literacy and computer coding through exercises, using a learning platform that integrates visual coding with text-based programming for all skill levels
HyperTeam USA CEO Arpi Solti is partnering with Felix Lluberes. a Naples serial tech entrepreneur, adviser and business strategist, for the Naples schools.
“We saw the opportunity to bring this wonderful technology to the United States, and we couldn’t find a better place than Naples,” Lluberes says in a statement. “This is just the beginning of a technology transformation taking place in Southwest Florida and we’re going to start with our kids and their education.”
During programming courses, students solve increasingly complex tasks while creating interactive animations, games and programs during semesters in up to five years of curriculum. Children learn logical, algorithmic thinking and important principles of programming naturally through a quick learning process.
“A lot of the spirit of this came from us being technology entrepreneurs and parents,” adds Lluberes.
