Our eLive class allows students to participate in workshops, as well as interact with classmates, and ask questions of the instructor--all virtually from the comfort of their own home. This class requires a computer with an updated web browser. Description: This workshop will give learners an introduction to video game design and programming by making simple games using the Scratch programming platform. Students will learn to control characters through an environment based on rules of their own creation. Creating their own characters and environments, students will also design their own levels. Typical games include customized 2D arcade and side-scrolling games.

    Not great - apparently the counselors didn’t know how to play Minecraft so Charlie said he didn’t learn anything. He said he was actually teaching them because the counselor that typically is there who knows how to play wasn’t there or had to leave. That’s disappointing as it then just becomes babysitting while he plays on his iPad. We send him there so he can learn more about the game he loves so hoping the counselors who know how to play and teach will be there this time.
