Overview Instructor Reviews

Description

Scratch is a simple block-based programming language. It is an extremely simple language, but at the same time is very deep because you can create simple projects, or you can do things such as create multiplayer games where files are stored on the cloud. This course is meant for students who have completed the beginner-level Scratch course.

In this course, we will cover things such as basic debugging tools you need, how algorithms work, how we can use external libraries, and add them to our games.

Learning Objectives:

In this course, students will learn

Sequence, Debugging, Algorithms, and Functions
External Libraries
Creating Games, Stories, and Basic Level of Animation
Creating Gaming Quizzes
Critical thinking
Design thinking
Problem-solving
Basic Introduction to platforming
Recursion 101

Jennifer says:

The instructor was very engaging and helpful. We loved the email reminders so we could be on time. My son learned so much and can\'t wait to take another class with this instructor. Excellent communication between the instructor and students. The instructor made the class easy to understand. Python is \"real\" coding. My son was excited to create a game with moving parts.

Yulei says:

Just want to pay some compliments to Mr. Abhijeet H. Jason loves his classes. He laughs at whatever he says. It really helps to keep him learning. Thanks!

Rithu says:

My son has really enjoyed this class!

Theresa says:

My child thought the class was really cool, and the quiz a lot of fun.

Jonathan says:

Great Python beginners class - hoping to continue to the next level. Excellent instruction that my child very much enjoyed. Thank you! My child loves his instructor, Abhijeet H. This was the same instructor for his advanced 6/7th grade math class - which he also loved.

Vienna says:

My son was introduced to new math concepts he didn’t know and he had fun. I like that he is challenged and wasn’t intimidated. He felt that it was both easy and hard. And he enjoyed it. It is a good way to keep our children engaged. Once my boys learn something, they think they know everything. Only being in this group class, did they realize they need more learning.
