Our curriculum consists of 6 different levels. While 3 levels focus on Game Development concepts and applications, the other 3 levels focus on computer science concepts which take students from Introductory level to being a Master Coder.
Covered concepts: Basic Syntax, Arguments, Variables, Strings, If Statements, Arithmetic, While Loops, Arrays, Functions, Parameters, Object Literals, For Loops, Boolean Logic, …etc
Kids & teens participate in live online lessons in small interactive groups. Each class is led by an experienced instructor who starts each class by giving a short lecture explaining a concept, then students will dive into their hands-on assignments and projects.
Students will build their game while learning different Game Development concepts and get help from the instructor when they need it. Every level has been built to be challenging but never discouraging. Students are supported with hints when they get stuck to spark their imagination and creativity.
We teach live classes online: an instructor and a small group of students meet once or twice a week in an online virtual classroom. We use web conference technology that allows live student-instructor interaction, including screen sharing, so everyone can see what the instructor is doing on their desktop. Students can fully participate in the lesson by using chat or their microphones. This method of teaching adds both a social and emotional element that supports the learning process immensely.
Kids are growing digitally anyway! We design our classes to address the different needs of our students. Students will build real-world skills and create game projects, that they can share with friends and family.
