One of the popular questions that Algorithmics receive from parents is “Our children don’t orient themselves to be a coder, Why should they learn to code?”. This essay will help parents understand why so many children learn coding at an early age nowadays.
Nowadays, IT - Information Technology majors and coding jobs are becoming familiar to everyone. There are more and more positions for IT majors in the 4.0 eras like game developers, website developers, back-end developers, front-end developers, mobile application developers,... Understanding how important and potential technology is, many students choose IT majors when studying at university.
Therefore, the competitiveness in this market is getting higher despite its high potential. So, in order to stand out from the crowd, knowledge is not enough. Soft skills should be considered and developed since young.
It’s hard to imagine what will happen if 4.0 life does not have the technology or programmers:
Besides, there are many serious consequences if the 4.0 era does not have technologies. So, “technology” is considered one of the most important part in human demand. The more necessary technology is, the more programmers - who are inventors, users and controllers - important.
Understanding how important and potential IT majors are, many 4.0 parents start to invest in children to educate them on how to use technology while young. Not only teach them how to use technology but also approach them to learn to code very soon.
Although, a number of parents usually think that “coding” is just a subject for students, adults who want to be programmers. Coding language is very hard for children to learn. Or they think “coding subject” is an extra subject for their child to develop interests and improve the experience. So, coding is not a must-have subject.
Don’t like many extra subjects, coding is not a “computer subject”, it is a subject that makes kids improve technology and thinking skills - one of the most important skills in the 5.0 era in the future.
Technology skills will be a skill that helps children easily to be at the top of trends and be successful in the future.
When the 4.0 era is covered by technology, from jobs to our daily life are related to tech, educating on how to use technology while a child is necessary and urgent. Owning this skill, children will easily understand how to apply tools, platforms for their study and life. Also, this skill will protect them from wrong information and malicious manipulations on the Internet. In addition, technology skills will help children diversify their future careers.
What should parents do to educate their children about the technology world?
Learning coding from an early age is an educational methodology to protect kids in the technology world.
Parents usually think that learning programming is learning about robots or in-depth knowledge about code languages. However, learning coding at Algorithmics definitely differs from others. Children will be taught how to command technology and develop essential skills of the 21st Century - empowering them to have their choice of professions-of-the-future.
The methodology has researched and developed a unique way for children to be suitable for their level, age and purpose. When studying Algorithmics, children will learn practical technology skills that can approach their real life. Not only using technology, but Alogers will also learn “how to control tech”, exploit all the technology’s features.
Especially with the unique methodology, Algorithmics will develop essential skills of the 21st Century for children like solving-problem, logical thinking, teamwork, presentation skill,...

Coding is still a strange concept for most Vietnamese parents and children. Let’s find out 5 reasons children should learn to code with Algorithmics as well as how coding helps them develop essential skills for the 21st century.
Steve Jobs said: “Everyone should know how to program a computer because it teaches you how to think”. Unlike other careers, coders have to work with computers and thick lines of code every day. Coders must “turn on” their mindsets to begin a working day. Logical thinking, problem-solving skills will help them define problems and debug. This is not natural intelligence, we can improve mindsets through learning and practicing. Learn coding is a subject that helps them to grow their types of mindset quickly and effectively.
With the learning process at Algorithmics, children do not learn alone and do homework like the traditional methods of learning. Algoers have to work with others to make a big project together.
Understanding teamwork is one of the important skills that are needed in all careers, Algo’s teachers always guide children on how to work together. From there, they will make a complete project. During teamwork time, children will learn how to listen, understand, empathize, share and identify their own strengths and weaknesses, and how to show their personal views, fair division of work,...
Think about coding, parents usually think that children just “learn with the laptop”. However, with Algortihmics’s methodology, children not only learn how to code but also develop their essential skills of the 21st century, including presentation skill.
Learning at Algo, children have many opportunities to stand in front of the class to present their projects. After presenting, they have to answer many questions from teachers and friends. Their mission is to use problem-solving, communication, presentation skills and knowledge to answer all the questions.
In addition, at the end of each session, children will present their project to parents confidently. They will explain confusing lines of code, content, and the meaning of the project to parents. From that, parents can understand and feel the growth of their children after learning at Algo.
With a learning methodology uniquely: student-centered, teachers will accompany students, both teach them new knowledge and apply knowledge to the projects. In addition, to make a personal project, children will have to be curious and creative. Teachers will teach them how to exploit their creativity and grow their active exploration.
Not just creative, curious or initiative will be successful. Children need to learn how to identify the key and important points of any issues. From that, they will research intensively, create freely but right focus and avoid digression.
Nowadays, technology skills are needed in every career. If in the 4.0 era, technology is growing up fastly and present in most occupations today. In the future, just 5-10 years later, technology skills will become must-have skills. Understanding the necessity of technology, Algorithmics always aims to teach children practical knowledge and essential soft skills like how to use and optimize all functions of tools on the Internet, how to use the Internet the right way and effectively, and how technology works. Having technology skills will help children to diversify their future careers.

After the technology revolution of the 21st century, new occupations were created and replaced some “traditional” fields. Not only adults, but also children, must be equipped with a set of 21st century soft skills in order to survive and develop in the 4.0 era.
According to Thanh Nien Newspaper, the human workforce will only account for 48% of total workforce by 2025. Modern machinery and technology will account for more than 52% of the total. As a result, the traditional passive-learning method, which teachers only transmis knowledge without two-way interaction from students, will fall behind. At the same time, teaching methods that emphasize thinking, skills that "machine elements cannot replace humans" will take the throne.
Since 2007, the world's education has focused on training necessary skills as well as highly applicable knowledge. Here, let's find out the essential soft skills for the 21st century!
Maria Montessori said: "Do not educate children in today's world. As you grow older, the world around you will change. We must prioritize teaching them how to think creatively and practice self-adaptation." Many job positions will be gradually replaced by the 3A model: AI: Artificial Intelligence; Automation: automation; Analytics: analytics - now and in the near future. As a result, developing 21st century skills at a young age is critical for future career success. The following are examples of 21st century essential skills:
(Pics translation: Proactive thinking, logical thinking, technical skills, presentation skills, teamwork, Creativity, curiosity, self-learning, Problem-solving skills)
Problem-solving skills are not only irreplaceable by technology, but also skills that help people manage technology. They include many different skills such as: problem identification, problem analysis, and problem solving. Not only adults but also children are exposed to many different issues from life to learning. Teaching children how to approach and solve problems from a young age will help them to be independent, confident, sensitive, ingenious and solve problems more optimally. In addition, in the process of practicing this skill, children will learn:
Technology can convey messages to people on our behalf, but they cannot provide practical arguments, evidences, answers and discussions. So presentation skills are absolutely essential and it takes a long time to develop.
Not only do you need confidence, presentation skills also necessarily involve a variety of related factors. To make a presentation to be engaging and effective, communication, observation and inspiration skills are the most important. Therefore, children need time to study,practice and develop this skill since young. Training children early on presentation skills will help them:
One of the skills we use often from school to work, but not everyone has the skill to work in a team. Like all of the skills above, teamwork is a combination of many small elements. A child with teamwork skills will have:
Machines are efficient, but they can only work to stereotype what is programmed. For society to develop and innovate, creativity, curiosity and self-learning are key factors. These skills help children be able to quickly integrate into the era of social development 4.0.
Children must be creative, constantly exploring and learning. We can see this trend applied not only in new industries like marketing, IT, technology, etc., but also traditional industries such as manufacturing, industry, agriculture,... also gradually require creativity to increase competitiveness, develop and optimize processes, and increase productivity.
Similar to creativity, proactivity is also important. Being independent, proactive learning, finding solutions will create good habits for children. Active thinking helps your child develop a variety of skills such as:
This is considered one of the key skills that any must have. Training logical thinking is not only reasoning and problem-solving, but also a way to exercise the brain to be more functional. Get logical thinking, children easily:
Nowadays, in this tech era, technology skills are a must-have factor. Technology skills not only help children know how to use technology wisely, but also a way to help them command technology in the future. Having grasped technology skills, children will not only catch up with trends easily, but also quickly.
The 21st-century skills is not a new concept. However, the more society develops, the more important and appreciated skills become. Not only that, having acquired a set of 21st century soft skills, children will also have access to many other important soft skills, making it easier for them to get closer to success in the future.
