What to expect from the class?

Basics of programming

Using the latest programs, students will begin to learn the concept of programming - creating the first interactive stories, games and animations.

Computational thinking

It is a problem-solving method that involves expressing problems and their solutions in a way that a computer can perform.

Logic

The principles of programming are also applied in everyday life: data, sequence of actions, conditions, summary and repetition of actions. In this way, the thought process is developed and logic is sharpened.

English and mathematics

The disciplines very closely related to programming - mathematics and English - help to better understand the principles of programming and the information provided.

Program

1st trimester

We will start the first trimester by creating a 2-dimensional game using Blockly variables, learning how to stylishly design a game using graphic design tools. We will get acquainted with the basics of programming and create a unique game!

2nd trimester

During the winter trimester, we will analyze and develop a 2D platform game very similar to Super Mario! Students will learn to create animations with Unity, create the logic of object movement and visuals with GIMP photo editor and remember math.

3rd trimester

During the spring trimester, we will create “Angry Birds” and “Tower Defense” type games, create additional elements and environments. At the end of the school year, students will be introduced to the Wix website development platform.

Technologies

During this school year, children will learn to work with the Unity game development platform, GIMP photo editor, and graphic design tools.

Parents must inform the camp organizers and on paper (or by digital means, such as e-mail) who will pick up the children from the camp (relevant for children under 14) or who to contact if the child does not show up at the camp. The same procedure applies in cases where children should leave the camp earlier.
