Ahn Jin-seok: Why? Coding Workbook 4: Life Sciences

Much of the world we live in operates through software. As artificial intelligence, robots, and the IoT (Internet of Things) advance, software will become even more critical, and the ability to handle software in this digital world will be a vital competitive advantage for the future. In line with this, mandatory software education is scheduled to begin in elementary schools in 2019. However, many elementary schools across the country are already implementing software education through after-school programs. Software education is not merely about teaching coding skills to create computer programs. Learning to code is about cultivating the power of thinking. It fosters creativity by conceptualizing how to build a program, computational thinking through the process of logically arranging commands for the computer to execute, and problem-solving skills by overcoming challenges when faced with them. The [Why? Coding Workbook] series kindly explains everything children are curious about when they first start coding. In particular, the [4. Life Science] volume demonstrates scientific principles—such as the principles of heating, smart houses, and autonomous vehicles—through coding. Since the principles are visualized, they are easier to understand and more fun. Try expressing what you learn in science class or the scientific principles around you that you were curious about directly through coding. Your science and coding skills will grow rapidly before you know it!
