Nina and the Neurons

Go Digital

Episode 1: Coding

First broadcast: on CBeebiesLatest broadcast: on CBeebies HD

Super scientist Nina and her young Experimenters travel the UK in search of digital wonders. With the help of Nina's five animated sense Neurons, they explain how amazing technology is all around us, helping make our everyday lives faster and easier.

Nina investigates how computers know what to do - with the help of all her sense neurons.

Experimenters Caleb, Kennedy and Sarah visit Nina in her lab. They discover that we give computers instructions so that they know what to do, and that the instructions are called code. Next, they do an experiment and find that the computer code can be like a really long list. Finally, they look for patterns in the code and have a go at coding for themselves! Show less
