The Python & AI Coding Workshop at Global Link, on May 25, 2025 from 12 to 3 PM, gave young learners aged 11 to 15 a hands-on first step into programming, robotics and artificial intelligence. Registration was $25 and places were limited.
What Kids Learned at the AI Coding Workshop
- Introduction to robotics and AI: how smart machines think, move and interact with the world
- Learning Python: a beginner-friendly but powerful language, used hands-on
- Links to FIRA world competitions and first programming steps with FIRA Canada
- Thinking like a creator: problem-solving through real-world tech challenges
- Beginner coding for kids and teens, with a certificate
Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world, used in AI, science and web development. It is also known for its clear, readable style, which makes it a great first language. Learn more at python.org.
Special Guest: Eng. Peyman Yousefi
The AI Coding Workshop welcomed Eng. Peyman Yousefi, who has more than 18 years of experience in robotics and artificial intelligence. He has guided teams toward championships in world competitions, specialises in mechatronics and systems, and has a strong focus on hands-on learning.
Why start this early? Children who learn to code build logical thinking, patience and confidence. A class like this turns screen time into creative time: instead of only using technology, kids start to build it.
AI Coding Workshop and FIRA Canada
Global Link works closely with FIRA Canada to create pathways from local classes to international robotics competitions. Workshops like this are often the first step for young people who later join teams and compete on a global stage.
