iCodejr’s Coding Program for Autism Awareness

iCodejr and Behaviour Enrichment Host Inclusive Coding Program for Neurodivergent Learners in the UAE

10‑week pilot blends autism-informed teaching with block-based coding, underscoring ed-tech’s role in accessibility

Dubai, UAE: 20 July 2026 – iCodejr, the STEM accredited, licensed online digital and AI literacy academy for school children, has completed a 10‑week paid coding enrichment program at Behaviour Enrichment, a leading pediatric therapy centre providing ABA therapy, Speech therapy, Occupational therapy and special educational programs for neurodivergent children and young people. The engagement, personally led by iCodejr Founder & CEO Hannan Moti, ran from April 23 to July 2, 2026 and supported 10 students across two age-differentiated batches.

The first batch, for learners aged 10–12, focused on introductory block-based coding using Scratch and Matatalab, with an emphasis on movement, loops, and early computational thinking. The second batch, for ages 14–16, built on this tangible, tools-based foundation to tackle more advanced Scratch projects, introducing greater complexity in logic, sequencing, and project design.
