Description

This is about a series of video lessons, accompanied by quizzes, exercises, and their solutions. They are delightful, permeated with humor and a lot of music. The star of the videos is Stevie. He is a cartoon character with a unique personality. With his student’s assistance, Stevie will guide you through the magical world of computer programming by building electronic games using M.I.T Scratch. The “Creating and Programming Games” e-course follows a spirited approach to learning as it first introduces important programming concepts, then repeats them through their use until the students use the principles naturally.In this course, you will come across several sections that make up the course ‘Programming and Creating Games’. In more detail, Section 1 is introductory. The lessons are about electronic games and their original design. In those units, you will also find enough general information about the Scratch application. Section 2 refers to basic programming concepts you need to know to be able to create games. Section 3 will guide you step by step to creating the game ‘The Banana’s Hunt.’ Section 4 will guide you to create the game ‘Grab the bone.’ Please note that the videos here are using the Scratch 2 application but I am sure this won’t be a problem since Scratch 2 is pretty much similar to Scratch 3.“Students are waiting to create electronic games with impressive 3D graphics and complex character moves. I am sure that, one day, they will manage to do so. But they must first start with simple games, like those that this course suggests. They will lay strong foundations so they can do much more in the future!”Important Tips:Attend all lessons from start to finish.Watch all videos more than once. It is not possible to get all the required Knowledge by watching a video of a few minutes only once.Always keep Scratch open. You will have to stop (freeze) the videos frequently and test the instructor’s suggestions.In any case, do not hesitate to ask any questions. Try and solve all quizzes and exercises.
