The Codero National Competition 2024 officially kicked off at Transpark Mall Bintaro on October 26, 2024. Organized by Codero, an educational platform focused on developing coding and robotics skills, the event invited children and teenagers from all over Indonesia to compete in six exciting categories: Speed Building, Scratch Coding, Roblox, Arduino, Robot Challenge, and Coloring. Hundreds of participants and visitors attended, ready to take part in the fun and challenges filled with creativity and innovation.
With a commitment to fostering young people’s interest in technology, the Codero National Competition 2024 provided a platform for participants to develop STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) skills from an early age. This event is expected to spark curiosity and problem-solving skills among children, while introducing basic concepts of technology and art.
“Let’s introduce and foster in children a love for robotics curriculum materials, which should become a standard practice in every school at all levels,” said Mr. Ahmad Sadeli, Head of the Madrasah Education Section at the Ministry of Religious Affairs in Depok City.
