Students will create games and projects through lessons about sequencing, functions, conditionals, variables, loops and sprites through interactive games such as Angry Birds and Minecraft. They will also learn how to create algorithms, organize and analyze data, and implement problem-solving skills in their projects.
Jill Warren, who teaches technology and computer skills, will instruct the course. Students will need access to a computer with internet connection and pencils and paper.
