細節: While this course does not formally assign homework, each lesson concludes with a comprehensive study guide that includes optional tasks. These tasks are designed to reinforce and expand upon the concepts covered in the lesson. Students are encouraged to complete these tasks independently to better grasp the material and further develop their coding skills. The time required to complete these tasks will vary depending on the student's pace, but generally, it should take about 1-2 hours each week. There is no group work in this course, and all projects are completed individually. Additionally, there is no required reading outside of the provided study guides.




Assessment
頻率: 包括
細節: Learner progress in this course is assessed informally through ongoing observation during class activities and through the completion of projects. Each week, learners will apply the coding concepts they've learned to create a new component of a game in Roblox Studio. The successful completion of these projects indicates an understanding of the course material.

Additionally, the instructor will provide feedback on the optional tasks completed from the study guides, if the students choose to share them. This allows the instructor to gauge individual understanding and provide personalized support as needed.

Please note that this course does not assign letter grades or formal written reports. The focus is on skill acquisition, practical application, and enjoyment of the learning process.

This course primarily utilizes Roblox Studio and the Lua scripting language as its main resources. The curriculum has been developed by the instructor with the aim of providing a comprehensive introduction to game design and coding principles. While the course material is largely original, additional insights have been derived from the following resources:

The Official Roblox Developer Guide (https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/)
Lua 5.1 Reference Manual (http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/)
Learn Lua (https://www.learn-lua.org/)
These resources may also be beneficial for students who wish to explore the subject matter more deeply outside of class time. However, all necessary content will be covered during class sessions and in the provided study guides.
