Ever wanted to build your own games or apps? Love Roblox or Minecraft? Well, this is the class for you! In this course, students will learn the skills of a coder through conceiving, designing, and creating their own mobile app games. The resulting games can be shared online and texted to friends for them to play on their phones. It’s a great way to combine learning with fun with becoming a game developer. You don’t need any previous experience or special software to take this: all you need is your creativity and a laptop.
Computers or tablets are required for this course.
This course is taught in partnership with Vineyard App Camp, a software and program provider used by 80+ schools in the U.S., Japan, and Canada.
About Vineyard App Camp
Students should never ask ‘why am I learning this?’, especially not when they’re learning critical 21st-century skills like coding and graphic design. In Vineyard App Camp classes, students as young as 2nd grade learn through real-world projects. Working on our kid-friendly platform, they improve their social skills and learn the nuances of the coding and design worlds through building apps for local nonprofits, like the local animal shelter or library. We help kids, schools and school districts make an impact and realize their potential! Our students learn how to tackle real-world problems, early.
