Minecraft のコーディング キャンプ: 独自のロボット ヘルパーをコーディングする (5 セッション)

PLATFORM:
(Minecraft Java Edition for PC / Non-M1 Mac Only! Not compatible with M1 Chip Macs, Ipads, Kindles, Tablets, Phones, and Game Consoles)

SKILL LEVEL:
This program is meant for Intermediate level players. This program requires Advanced reading comprehension, Moderate proficiency with computers, and some prior experience with Minecraft. Additionally, campers will need typing and hotkey proficiency, along with basic arithmetic skills.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
If you love Minecraft and the thrill of customizing your play, then this is the camp for you. In this camp you’ll learn to command robots and transform your Minecraft into a powerful world filled with dynamic machines. Like all Connected Camps programs, this class offers a project-based, exploratory classroom environment that sits at the intersection of learning and playing. After all, kids learn the most when they're having fun!

To control the robots in game, you’ll master the basics of a lightweight programming language called Lua. Like the machines in the real world, you can use these robot helpers to improve your ability to work and play. 

Over the course of the week, you will:

— Use code and robots to access new levels of play.
— Think like a programmer and approach Minecraft problems to find answers.
— Learn the fundamentals of the Lua programming and how to use it to direct your robot helpers.
— Solve in-game challenges by coding with variables, conditions, and loops.

To fully understand the basics of programming, you’ll first observe Minecraft robots and examine the way they operate. Once you understand how the robots work, you’ll code your own machines to solve different types of challenges. You’ll get to explore new concepts through group discussions during each session so you’re constantly learning and coding.

These robots are also accessible after class so you can continue to use them when playing with your friends.

PARENTS: 
This is a camp for students who want to dive into the world of code and machinery by learning the basics of a programming language called Lua. We provide a constructive and safe space for students to learn the essentials while adopting the mindset of a programmer. Students will then apply the same concepts that real life programmers use to find solutions and automate processes. 

This is a 5-session camp that lasts a week. We balance group discussion time with plenty of hands-on experience with other students. This way, students can cement what they’re learning and fully explore the topics they're interested in. By combining Minecraft with education, your child will be able to engage their passions as they have fun in a positive, interest-driven environment. Please note that we will be asking for your camper's in-game username so that we can add them to our server's safelist.

Your child will also have access to the ComputerCraft mod after the session and can continue to play with robots in Minecraft.
