Beginner 等級
This course will serve as an introduction to computer programming for beginners. Students will be putting their new knowledge to use each week by working on a simple game project. We start simple with text-based guessing games and gradually move on to more complex graphical games by the end of the course. Over time, as students' skills grow, assignments become more open-ended and introduce more room for creativity. The course will end with each student producing their own original game concept as a capstone project. I believe that staying motivated by focusing on projects of personal interest is the best way to learn programming. We will be learning the Lua programming language and using a game engine called Love2D. These are professional-grade tools which have been used to create commercial titles. Each lesson includes a live code-writing demo by me to illustrate the topic for the week while learners will be following along and asking questions as they arise. Each week will give the students a challenge to work on. Students are encouraged to post their in-progress code and get help from me and from each other.
學習目標
Students will learn the basics of programming and gain some familiarity with the Lua language. Students will also learn how to tackle the kinds of problems that organically emerge when working on a large software project.

其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
The applications students will be using (Lua Interpreter, Love2D, & VS Code) all run locally on the user's computer without any need to log into an account or send any data over the network. These applications are professional development tools from widely trusted publishers and are safe to run on any computer.
The recommended online reference sources (lua.org and love2d.org) are both publicly available on the web and do not require an account or any personal information from the user.
先決條件
Learners should have basic computer literacy — the ability to install and use applications, manage files and folders, search for information on the web, etc.
供應清單
A computer running a modern operating system such as Window, MacOS, or Linux. The software students will need include a text editor (Visual Studio Code is recommended), a copy of the Lua interpreter, and the Love2D game engine.
外部資源
學習者無需使用標準 Outschool 工具以外的任何應用程式或網站。
來源
As reference material for the tools we are using, the documentation on lua.org and love2d.org will be extremely useful.
