Event Details

Minecraft Coding

This course is designed for primary aged students who are looking to learn to code the games that they play every day. Minecraft makes coding fun yet meaningful as players learn and understand coding concepts that they bring to life in the game!

The participant can use a drag & drop interface which is highly intuitive, but the blocks also show the actual java code too. Coding concepts like variables, if/then/else statements and constructors will be learnt. More advanced participants can switch any time from block-based drag-and-drop code to Javascript.

The children can play with their creations and show their friends at the end of the session on a secure server that only the course participants on the day will have access to:

Code in Minecraft using a Java editor
Increase complexity with Conditions and Variables
Learn about Boolean and Loops
Test and debug using logic and systematic reasoning
Connect your world and Play in Minecraft

Game Design

Make games rather than play them using your own ideas! Become game developers for a day using a physical and virtual platform for creating video games in the classroom. When students build games, they become the writers, artists, designers, and developers of their own interactive stories.

It all starts with an idea. We provide resources that encourage collaboration while guiding students through a design thinking process. Students create their own 13-bit layouts, characters, and art for their game.

turn your physical creations into digital game elements
edit and customize everything from characters to settings
develop interactions and behaviour between characters
tell rich, dynamic narratives through your games
publish them so others can play them too

Lego Robotics

Children use the Lego WeDo 2.0 to design robots to solve real world problems. They learn to code their robots in interactive challenges. In addition to the basics of robotics, children learn key engineering principles such as force and motion, gear ratios and aerodynamics.

Solve a real world ‘big problem’ such as pollution, animal welfare, dinosaur habitats
Apply engineering concepts such as gear ratios, aerodynamics, motions
Explore visual programming with the WeDo 2.0 and EV3 software
Build robots that use motors
Program and utilize different sensors
Develop structural design skills

Make Your Own Animation

In this course, children learn to create their own stories through Wallace & Grommitt type clay figures and Lego city models. They will learn to create story boards before shooting their own movie complete with audio and special effects animations. The children will be encouraged to work in teams to bounce off ideas and become excellent story tellers. In our animation workshops, children:

Create story boards and narratives
Plan and create characters
Edit video and audio tracks
Use professional equipment and software for capture and editing
Produce videos and animations for YouTube
Develop a range of soft skills including presenting, planning, designing and post-production editing
