Overview: In this ongoing class, students will learn coding through project-based learning on Minecraft Education Edition. Each week we will have a coding project to accomplish. This means we will be coding and creating/destroying to achieve that objective. Basically doing some fun world-building projects in Minecraft! This ongoing class is meant for beginners who want to learn to code while playing Minecraft in a stress-free environment. The students will be immersed in the Minecraft world where we will use block coding to learn some programming fundamentals. What Students Will Be Learning: These classes will provide students with the foundations of programming. We will be learning about variables, functions, lists, the way code flows through our programs, and much more in a beginner-friendly way. Class Structure: ■ Greetings ■ Topic overview ■ Student coding time / Testing code ■ Student creative time / Viewing of creations ■ If time allows and students wish to participate we do some extra group activities at the end of the lesson EXPERIENCE: No coding experience is required. No Minecraft experience is required. REQUIREMENTS: This class uses Minecraft Education Edition. Please make sure to download and install it before enrolling in the class. Available for Windows, Chromebook, Mac, and iPad (other tablets are not supported). Two devices work best, one for coding on Minecraft and another for viewing Zoom. Please make sure to check your system requirements and installation before booking a class. You can download it here: https://education.minecraft.net/en-us/get-started/download TEACHER EXPERTISE: We want our students to have fun while learning! Our teachers combine software expertise with experience working with young learners in diverse educational settings, including schools and summer camps! MESSAGE RESPONSE TIME: Messages are typically answered within 48 hours. ATTENDANCE and REFUND POLICY: Missed classes, regardless of the reason, are not eligible for refunds. This policy ensures fairness to our teachers and all students, as once a spot is taken, it cannot be filled by another student. Additionally, teachers will only wait for 10 minutes in the classroom for students to join; if no student arrives within this time, the teacher will close out the class. Please note that we do not reschedule classes due to missed sessions.
