Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description

Most kids will pick up basic computer skills just by living life. But there's a whole layer underneath that, problem solving, logic, design, that only comes from real computer science, and most of us were never taught it ourselves.

In this episode, Curtis Grover, a homeschool dad and computer science teacher with 11+ years of experience including AP Computer Science A, walks through what computer science actually builds in kids, how AI fits into the picture, and where to start even if your family has never touched a coding curriculum.

👉 Inside this episode:

  • Why computer science builds skills far beyond the keyboard

  • How AI changes what kids need to know

  • What's really taught in a computer science class

  • How to support a computer-curious kid without limiting their creativity

  • What counts for high school transcripts and college credit

  • Where to start, no matter your student's age or experience
