Students will create their first game in Roblox Studio (the floor is made of lava). Discover the exciting world of game design with our one-session introductory course on Roblox Studio. This class offers students a hands-on experience in designing a game while exploring various aspects of Roblox Studio, such as styling and placing parts, working with models, and getting an introduction to Lua coding. This course will provide a solid foundation for students interested in our future in-depth...
- Understand the Basics of Roblox Studio: Students will gain a foundational understanding of how to navigate and use Roblox Studio, including its tools and interface, to create and customize game elements.

This class is designed to be inclusive and supportive of students with unique learning needs, including ADHD and autism. As an experienced instructor, I use clear, structured instructions, break tasks into manageable steps
Here is a list of things you will need for this class: A computer: Ensure you have a computer with the necessary system requirements to run Roblox and Roblox Studio smoothly. The system should have at least a 1.6 GHz processor, 1 GB of system memory (RAM), and DirectX 9 compatible GPU. For a better experience, a more powerful computer with a faster processor, more RAM, and a dedicated graphics card is recommended. Roblox account: Sign up for a free Roblox account if you haven't already. This account will allow you to access and use Roblox Studio and save your work on the platform. Roblox Studio: Download and install Roblox Studio on your computer. It is a free development tool provided by Roblox, which you will use to create and design your games throughout the class. Internet access: A stable internet connection is necessary for downloading Roblox Studio, accessing the platform, and working on your projects during the class. Optional: A mouse and keyboard are recommended for ease of navigation and better control while working in Roblox Studio. By having these items ready, you will be well-prepared to participate in the class and start your journey into game design and development with Roblox Studio.
Roblox Studio is a powerful, creative tool that allows students to learn game design, coding, and collaboration skills while building their own unique experiences in a safe, moderated environment. Students need a Roblox account to access Roblox Studio, but we will only be using Roblox Studio in this class, focusing on game creation rather than playing games created by others. Creating a Roblox account is free, and as a parent, you can monitor your child's account settings, including privacy and security options, ensuring a safe and engaging learning experience.
