Description: Mini games course is about learning the basics of programming in Code’s visual online environment. During the course, students will be introduced to the basic concepts of programming (algorithm, performer, program, repetition, etc.) and will be able to program well-known movie and game characters such as “Frozen”, “Angry birds”, “Minecraft”, “Star Wars”.
Through this platform, students will understand how the written program affects the performer (the character of the game), and establish a relationship between them.
At the last lesson, students perform independent work, as a result of which they will create their own game, which they can share with other users of the Code online platform.
This course enables students to gain first-hand gaming experience, develop logic, algorithmic thinking, and personal computer skills.
What is needed: personal computer with web connection support (webcam and microphone), Internet connection speed of AT LEAST 7 MB/s (incoming and outgoing).
Preparing for the first lesson: before the first lesson, students are provided with all the necessary information on how to install the required training programs on their computer, as well as instructions on how to install and operate Zoom.
The teacher helps students understand all the tools and programs in the first trial lesson that will be used in the course, as well as gives an introductory lesson with practical tasks for students.
Form of education: training takes place in groups (no more than 8 people) once a week. During the remote lesson, students work in the Zoom program, where the teacher has the opportunity to monitor their work and help using the remote control function. It is recommended that parents attend the lesson.
