This class does not require any out-of-class work. We do offer optional challenges that students can work on as an extension of what is taught in class. We provide guidance and instructions for students who are inspired to delve deeper into the topic. The purpose of these challenges is to give students the opportunity to supplement their learning with additional material that aligns with their passions and goals. Students may then integrate their learnings into their project and showcase their accomplishments to their classmates. With this approach, students can explore the subject on their own. We give students the opportunity to share what they’ve explored independently with the class.학습 평가
At Connected Camps, we assess each student’s progress by engaging them in reflection of their own work and the work of their classmates. By building in Minecraft and applying concepts taught in class, our students are able to solidify their learnings through hands-on application. Our counselors’ focus is to provide qualitative feedback to further each students’ individual goals and interests, and we do not use letter or number grades. In addition to our in-class reflections, our counselors also provide post-session recaps that offer a summary of what is accomplished each day. Through these summary reflections, students are able to review the material and share with their parents what they did in class. We find this approach allows kids of different interests and abilities to engage with our teachings in a way that is particularly relevant to them.채점

수업 소개
PLATFORM: (Minecraft Java Edition for PC / Mac Only! Not compatible with Ipads, Kindles, Tablets, Phones, and Game Consoles) SKILL LEVEL: This program is meant for Basic level players. This program requires Basic reading comprehension, Basic proficiency with computers, and some prior experience with Minecraft. PROGRAM OVERVIEW: Similar to electricity, Minecraft’s Redstone is an amazing tool that acts as an interactive power source for your creations. In this course, you’ll get to explore that power and build dynamic devices from automatic doors to fully-functioning rail systems. 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! During this course, you will: — Learn how to adjust Redstone input and output signals to build simple mechanisms using levers, lights, and buttons. — Create unique contraptions suitable for a Minecraft secret base like traps, doors, and locks. — Use different types of clocks to set the time, speed, and precision of your machines. — Learn how rails interact and function to design a roller coaster for an amusement park. This is a course where you’ll learn the basics of Redstone engineering from group discussions and personal experimentation. During each session, you’ll get hands-on practice with new Redstone concepts that will enhance your play and assist you with completing the daily objective. At the end of this course, you’ll get to combine everything you’ve learned to design an amusement park which includes epic roller coasters, simple mini-games, and other Redstone-powered contraptions! PARENTS: This is a course for kids who want to incorporate a new aspect of play into their Minecraft experience while they practice their problem solving skills. With Redstone, students can explore the basics of engineering and how electricity works while they enjoy the game they love. Students must have previous experience with Minecraft when joining this camp. This is a 5-session course that meets once a week for 5 weeks. 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.
학습 목표
— Day 1 - Set Up and Introduction to Redstone in Minecraft: Our primary goal for this day is to assist students in setting up Minecraft and to familiarize kids with our camp’s objectives. Students will be introduced to Redstone, a tool used to power objects in Minecraft. They will learn the basics of Redstone input and output and use it to make traps for the ender golf courses.
— Day 2 - Redstone Clocks: Redstone clocks are mechanisms that send redstone signals at specific intervals. In this class, we will use Redstone clocks to build timed traps and obstacles to integrate into our parkour maps!
— Day 3 - Useful Contraptions: Redstone can be used to build creative contraptions. In this session, we will learn about various types of contraptions made with Redstone, and continue to find ways to implement those contraptions into our Redstone houses. Using what they already know, students will build a home decked out with elevators and other Redstone mechanisms inside.
— Day 4 - Rollercoasters and Rails: Using Redstone rails, students will create roller coasters that can switch and auto-launch.
— Day 5 - Introduction to Logic Gates: We will use different Redstone inputs and outputs to synthesize the lesson information from throughout the week in projects of our own design. Through collaboration and teamwork, we’ll combine our efforts to build a fully fleshed amusement park!

Internet safety is a top priority for us and our goal is to create a safe, connected community of learners that is moderated by our instructors. Throughout our programs we strive to educate our learners on internet safety and best practices for connecting online.
In our programs, our learners are often making friendships and connections with others in class. While we encourage positive online friendships, we think it’s important to practice these principles of internet safety:
— Do NOT ask others to connect online outside of our programs without first confirming with your parents. Our programs are a safe, moderated space for learners to engage but we can’t moderate connections outside of our classes.
— Do NOT give away personal information which includes but is not limited to: your name, address, phone number, passwords, location, email address, and parental information.
— If an individual asks for personal information, you should inform a counselor or your parent for guidance.

One thing that makes our programs unique is our near-peer mentorship model. Our programs are led by young adults and college students, often with the help of high school volunteers. We hire counselors and coaches from top universities in computer science, game development, economics, social studies, and the arts, and train them on how to facilitate project-based learning with younger kids. Our young instructors have the same passion for technology, games, and digital making as our learners, and take on the role of instructors, as well as fellow enthusiasts and relatable role models.
The curriculum for this program was designed by a team of counselors pursuing degrees relevant to the material at hand. The learning experiences in this class are driven by these counselors’ academic expertise in the field, along with their desire to share their passion for the subject with a group of excited learners. All of Connected Camps’ curricula are vetted by the organization’s Product Manager, Matthew, who possesses a Masters in Secondary Education and a deep belief in the power of collaborative virtual learning.
