Computer Studies
Vision
The MGS Computer Studies Curriculum is to help students to develop 3 important skills that are critical as they navigate the ever-changing landscape:
critical thinking,
problem solving; and
creativity
Our students will be learning coding which is an essential skill in the future because it is an important part of the digital transformation. Especially with the unprecedented disruption from Covid-19, we see an increasing number of jobs that require coding skills as most services and products are being digitized.
