Speaking on the occasion, Dhaka University Friends' Alliance Joint General Secretary Md Abu Saleh said education is meant to educate the next generation, equipping themselves with future technological knowledge and tools.

He said coding should be started from an early age. "This is very much important to learn how to code at younger ages as it prepares themselves for the future technology-based era".

The instructor of the coding course is Mrs. Romasa Kasem, a lecturer of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering of the Independent University of Bangladesh.

The month-long programme has been designed as per the guidelines of the US-based Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

The course has 12 online interactive classes which will come to an end on August 02 next.

The students will be assigned for some projects to be prepared considering their ages.

During the inaugural class, many guardians also participated. Former DUFA secretary-general Dr. Syed Neamul Islam and DUFA member Syeda Taslima Tuhin, Senior Teacher, Shaheed Bir Uttam Lt Anwar Girls' College, among others, welcome the initiative.
