Minecraft Mod Madness

Minecraft Mod Madness
Minecraft is a wonderful environment for learning code. Children who already love building in Minecraft, love the power that coding gives them. But also, Minecraft makes coding seem easy. When children write and run code in Minecraft the results are both immediate and very visual. This makes understanding abstract concepts seem concrete. Please not this is a coding class, not a Minecraft playing class.

Wild Wild Web

Wild Wild Web
In Wild Wild Web we go retro, we go wild and we go live. Students express themselves by building a fully functioning website with cool fonts, cool (or not) colours, pictures, videos, animation and links that they can show their friends and family. We start with html & learn to upload onto the web with an ftp program. We get fancy with style sheets. We get even fancier with javascript. By the time we move into php your site will be wilder than Annie Oakley with a six-shooter. This is a really fun class and ideal for creative students.

Lua for Roblox

Lua for Roblox
Roblox is an online gaming platform that allows users to build games for themselves and others to play. If you have not heard about it, your children have. With more than 164 million players, and over 4 million young game developers, Roblox is brilliant for encouraging children to learn to code. In fact some young developers have become millionaires. Roblox games are created with Roblox Studio, Roblox's game creation tool. Although this tool makes it possible to do very complex things, it is also easy to use for a beginner. The Roblox game engine uses the Lua programming language, which is simple to learn and to use, powerful and widely used.
