RP4K has invested in two new pieces of technology, a Learning Management System and Screen Sharing software, to elevate coding online for kids. With this combined technology, we can now offer the same small class size experience our customers have come to expect, with enhanced learning both in and outside the classroom.
Online learning is the perfect solution for those unable to attend in-person classes, looking to get ahead with experience, and adapt to a world with fewer in-person meetings and more virtual settings!
Online coding for kids’ classes and camps are interactive, so a microphone is required, and a camera is recommended. It is essential that your child has what they need for lessons.
We offer a wide array of online coding courses for kids for you to choose from, which is why we offer free trials. Our free trial classes allow us to gage your child’s experience level and pair them with the right course and at the right level.
RP4K students and parents now have an easy way to see overall course progress, access resources from outside the classroom in a much more comprehensive manner, and integrate at-home learning opportunities between our weekly lessons. We challenge RP4K students to complete weekly quizzes and assignments in addition to our material in our class sessions. Students are also challenged in our courses to present their own game at the end of the year!
RP4K recognizes that every student has different goals, and some may want to go further than others. That’s okay! Through our online programming for kids, we intend to provide an opportunity where both students can move at their own pace and move ahead on their own time!RP4K will have two types of material for students to complete between classes; Optional and Course Material.
The optional content will be creating the second game of their own design, and other small challenges between lessons. The Course Material of an RP4K online coding course for kids will be components of the lesson material, which we will demonstrate.
We use two 3rd party partners for our live online coding classes and camps.
Zoom: We use Zoom for our live-sharing classroom environment. Our staff are trained to use
the software safely, and our administrators have configured our meetings such that there is no possible way for outside interruption or exposure of data. Zoom Computer Audio calls are encrypted with the same technology as secure web-pages using Transport Layer Security.
Canvas: Instructure’s Canvas tool allows us to manage a student’s progress in our material, provide them additional resources, and challenge them to further their learning. Canvas is a Learning Management System that gives us the ability to provide homework, assignments, quizzes, discussions, and much more. It also features an easy-to-follow calendar system that shows your child’s weekly online live-session and more!

While offering coding online for kids, Real Programming 4 Kids minimizes the amount of student data we retain and has sought to protect student data on our 3rd party programs. Student data is stored entirely in Canada, hosted on Canvas servers in Montreal.
Zoom is a U.S. entity, and while we will use U.S. servers to connect and host our live sessions, there is no student data transferred or stored on the Zoom platform. Information accessible to Zoom is recorded, including audio and video calls, as well as chat logs. All RP4K resources will be accessible through Canvas.
Real Programming 4 Kids will record each live session for auditing and ensuring virtual safety online. We will not tolerate any indecent behaviour and move quickly to remove any offenders from our program. The rules and policies will be clearly outlined and indicated to you as part of the introduction to the course.
No video of children’s coding classes will ever be made publicly available without your consent.
Real Programming 4 kids is focused on delivering high-quality computer science education through our various online coding courses for kids. Due to the nature of technology, developing brains of students, we must set some initial ground rules to keep our programming classes running smoothly. These policies are in place to protect you, your children, and their information. You can see our online policies on our 2021 policy page.
Applies to two or more students signing up together, spearheaded by one guardian who single-handedly schedules the 2, 3, or 4 member group. All students must be in the same class.
RP4K appreciates referrals! If you are a first-time RP4K customer that was referred by an existing RP4K customer, you will receive a $75 credit towards your first RP4K online coding course.
In addition, the referring family also receives a $75 credit on their next RP4K course. This discount can be combined with our percentage discounts.
Only one percentage discount can apply. The preceding percentage discounts can not be combined. You can only receive one of the preceding discounts. We always apply the best available discount.
