컴퓨터 프로그래밍 - Roblox Lua 소개

This course is NOT for new/inexperienced coders. This is an Intermediate level class. 
A coding assessment will be sent to enrolled learners to confirm prerequisites are met and that learners at an intermediate level. 
This is a project based class. Students will have a project due at the end of the class. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a live class, but it will include supplemental videos in the Outschool classroom to reinforce the lessons. 
The project will be learner directed, but I will provide instructions on what the project should include.

Any required experience or knowledge learners need?
Learners should have 6+ months of coding experience PRIOR to enrolling in this class. 

This course is 12 weeks and is intended for students that want to focus only on coding and creating a game. This course does not teach building techniques or how to use Roblox Studio. This class is only for learning how to code in Roblox Lua.

How is the class structured?

How will I teach? 
This is a hands on course. Learners will be expected to type their own code. I will screen share so that learners can see script, but learners will be expected to write their own code. 

This course does not use the marketplace toolbox, imported items, or any third party applications. All work is done in Roblox Studio. 

Any required experience or knowledge learners need?
Required experience or knowledge learners need prior to enrolling in the class:
-- Students must have experience using Roblox Studio to make games. The course does not cover how to use Roblox Studio. The course focuses on coding only. 
-- Familiar with using a Windows/Mac computer (Roblox Studio requires a Windows or Mac computer)
      Examples include but are not limited to the following tasks with little or no assistance:
          -- Knows how to copy and paste 
          -- open and close a window
         -- Create upper and lower case letters (Example would be RoBlox STudio)
         -- Understand how to type punctuation/symbols that share the same key (Example would be : and ; or + and = ).
-- Able to identify ALL letters, numbers, and punctuation on a keyboard.
-- Basic math skills. Proficient in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
-- Aware of the typing/keyboard expectation. This class does NOT use Block coding (like what is seen in Scratch Programming).
