Class Experience

Start coding Python in Minecraft. Learn the basics of Python, including syntax, data types, variables, conditionals, for and conditional loops, lists and functions. Students will join the cadet program at a fictional software development company called Coding Mine. The cadets will be correcting errors in existing pieces of code, and writing Minecraft Python programs using the correct syntax. 
After the students have completed all the tasks for Coding Mine, they will be exploring the exciting Kingdom of Floating Islands. Through a series of themed tasks in each island, students will review the basic concepts of Python programming language.
