DESCRIPTION:A six-week course for ages 10 to 14 designed to spark interest
  in programming and robotics through guided instruction by experienced hig
 h school mentors..\nhttps://mcpl.libnet.info/event/17410677
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>The Richard Montgomery High School robotic
 s team\, Rocket Robotics\, is excited to offer a free\, six-session coding
  course for middle school students\, designed to introduce beginners to th
 e fundamentals of programming and spark interest in programming and roboti
 cs. This hands-on course will cover the fundamentals of coding using one o
 f the most popular programming languages\, Python. Students will receive g
 uided instruction over the 6 session course which will help them understan
 d key concepts (such as basic Python syntax\, control structures like loop
 s and if statements\, working with arrays\, creating reusable methods) and
  get set up to further advance their coding skills.</p>\n<p>Experienced hi
 gh school mentors will guide the participants\, providing personalized sup
 port and encouragement. With each session building on the last\, students 
 will not only gain a solid foundation in Python programming that they can 
 apply in robotics and other coding projects\, but also the confidence to e
 xplore further in the world of technology and robotics. Whether you're new
  to coding or looking to strengthen your skills\, this course will provide
  a supportive and engaging environment to get started with Python.</p>\n<p
 >Classes meet every Monday October 12-November 16 -- registration is requi
 red and classes are limited to 20 students.</p>\n<p>Students are encourage
