"Basic computer class" made sense when computers (including phones and tablets) weren't as pervasive as they are now. Now that almost everyone is using them, "basic programming class" is entirely appropriate. As is "basic image editing" class, "basic spreadsheet use" class, "basic computer aided drafting", etc. I think learning a little coding is like learning a little algebra. Sure you may not use it, but then again you may.
