This program is designed for aspiring programmers who want to create their own games using Minecraft: Education Edition! Students will be introduced to Python-based programming through MakeCode, a coding environment that transforms block-based programming into real JavaScript code. They will learn to automate the Minecraft world and design their own interactive experiences!
Students will gain a foundational understanding of programming principles, including variables, loops, and algorithms. They will develop critical thinking as they predict the outcomes of various algorithms and see their code come to life in the Minecraft universe. Along the way, they’ll strengthen their algorithmic thinking and problem-solving skills, while becoming familiar with essential programming terms and concepts. 🧠🚀
Each session begins with a teacher-led presentation, introducing new coding concepts and mathematical algorithms. For example, students might learn how to create a random number generator or build an automated game mechanic. Afterward, they’ll use their newfound knowledge to apply scripts in Minecraft, bringing their programming ideas to life in the virtual world. 🖥️🎮
Ce programme est conçu pour les futurs programmeurs qui souhaitent créer leurs propres jeux en utilisant Minecraft: Édition Éducation! Les élèves seront initiés à la programmation basée sur Python via MakeCode, un environnement de codage qui transforme la programmation par blocs en véritable code JavaScript. Ils apprendront à automatiser le monde de Minecraft et à concevoir leurs propres expériences interactives!
Les élèves acquerront une compréhension fondamentale des principes de la programmation, comme les variables, les boucles et les algorithmes. Ils développeront leur pensée critique en prédisant les résultats de divers algorithmes et en voyant leur code prendre vie dans l'univers Minecraft. Tout au long du cours, ils renforcent leur capacité à penser de manière algorithmique et à résoudre des problèmes, tout en se familiarisant avec des termes et concepts essentiels de la programmation. 🧠🚀
Chaque session commence par une présentation dirigée par l'enseignant, présentant de nouveaux concepts de codage et des algorithmes mathématiques. Par exemple, les élèves pourraient apprendre à créer un générateur de nombres aléatoires ou à construire une mécanique de jeu automatisée. Ensuite, ils utiliseront leurs nouvelles connaissances pour appliquer des scripts dans Minecraft, donnant vie à leurs idées de programmation dan
Our courses consist of two semesters: Level 1 and Level 2, which take place within one year and include a total of 37 classes. Typically, students complete a year of lessons before moving on to a more advanced course. However, in some cases, if their teacher believes they are ready, they can advance earlier.
