Basics of games development semester 1 (Scratch, Minecraft) ONLINE
You need to be able to use mouse, write, read and count to 20.
The first semester is prepared to introduce the world of programming and its basic concepts. Students can demonstrate their skills in the Scratch environment and Minecraft Education Edition. Thanks to stepping into the worlds of such games as Minecraft, Fortnite, Angry Birds, we convey fascinating topics from the programming world in an unusual way.
Intro
The programming basics are implemented in the Scratch language. It is an educational language, created as a tool to teach children the basics of coding. It enables easy creation of interactive stories, animations or games. Coding is done in a visual way - elements of the language are in the shape of puzzles, which arranged in a proper way create a working program or game. During the first semester we also learn how to use block objects: KODU (creating 3D games) and Makey Makey (coding using electronic boards). After completing the course each participant receives a certificate confirming their participation. YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO WRITE, READ, AND COUNT TO 20. Our online classes are NOT a webinar or a Youtube course! During our online classes, each student will see the teacher's screen, hear what he or she is saying, and the teacher will have an insight into what the student is doing and saying (he or she will see each student's screen). Each student will be able to ask a question by voice, the teacher will be able to answer every question and indicate exactly where the error is and how to fix it.
Plan of the course
Minecraft in Scratch? Hassle-free! Join the mission where you will sit at the helm of your own Crafting Table. Move blocks, create and play. Minecraft experience guaranteed!
Angry Birds can be found not only on the tablet or in the cinema room. If you search well, you will also find them in our classes. Join the Angry Birds team and hunt bad pigs today, tasked with taking over the world.
The mission isn't over yet. We have to fight the pigs again - but this time there are many more of them than the last time.
Game developers know very well that knowledge of creating graphics is key in designing your own games. So together we'll invite "Marker" to paint for us whatever we want. During the lesson the student will learn the basic commands for simple editing of graphics and creating their own images.
Hello! Hello! Do we have math fans on board here? If so, we catch the wind in the sails and act. Today we will show you that mathematics does not have to be boring and can be used in programming in many ways. During the classes, an educational mathematical animation will be created to solve simple mathematical tasks. Arithmetic activities will be shown - multiplication and addition.
Another season in Fortnite and you do not know how to prepare yourself? Jump behind Scratch's rudder and do some training with the harvesting tool. Wander around the board and hit critical points. Thanks to our training no Battle Royal will be scary for you. During the classes we will learn about the draw mechanics and the possibilities of its application in creating games. We will also discuss basic information about the loop.
Road safety is essential. We have to help our hero to get to the other side of the street but unfortunately cars drive like crazy. Take a look to the left, and look to the right and run. During the lesson we will create a game that consists of crossing the character through a busy street, avoiding being hit by driving cars. During the creation of the game, you will be shown the transmission of messages and the countdown of time by using a stopwatch.
The rest of our journey. We almost succeeded but there are more and more cars. Can you do it? The lesson aims at completing the previous game and summarizing the knowledge gained by completing the project set by the teacher on your own.
Are you familiar with names such as Enderman, Creeper or Ghast? In today's class we will move to a completely new dimension. Thanks to the MakeCode platform, it will be able to penetrate the world of Minecraft and program it according to your own idea. We do not wait - The Minecraft portal is closing soon.
Survival of the first night is one of the most crucial moments in Minecraft. Usually we have only basic raw materials to build a wooden hut. But how about an anatomical hut made of bedrock? On the first day! We will learn the basics of building construction and design, adding doors and various defensive elements.
Parkour is one of the most entertaining features of Minecraft, right after Bed Wars. Are you ready to jump platforms, avoid traps and high jumps? If yes, put on the comfy shoes and jump on the track. Height fear? Then don't look down. Next part of Minecraft construction. Classes entirely dedicated to high track advancement.
Following part of parkour adventure. First, 100-metre run, next rim jump and high wire trick. Can you make it? The classes are the continuation of the previous sessions.
Time to evaluate our adventure. Get the mouse and the keyboard and let's show off. Revision will be based on the students' knowledge. Students will have to finish the given tasks on their own.
Time to move to a new dimension. Nothing will be the same again. Steve using Scratch opened a portal to an entirely new place - Code Game Lab, where you can create a 3D version of the game. Join now for a new adventure during the second semester. You will be presented with CODE Game Lab platform, used for the second semester and you will write the first three-dimensional game - "pumpkin apples." The students will learn the methods of motion programming as well as how to respond to events in the game.
