Coders play an essential role in our everyday lives, from designing reliable apps and games for all ages. 

Coders play a crucial role in advancing our technology to help me make our world a more connected and safer place. 

Students will learn the basics of coding games in our Coding & Game Design class and understand its steps to create a successful design. 

In this course, students will put on their coding caps and test their abilities by creating different projects related to the commands learned throughout the class.
