Computer game programming courses!
Tell your students they can write their own computer games and you’ll have their undivided attention! Both KidCoder and TeenCoder have Game Programming courses where students learn the nuts and bolts of building a computer game from scratch. These are not 3D art classes or scripted games pieced together using someone else’s pre-built environment. Students will learn foundational gaming topics such as graphics, animation, sound effects, game physics, game logic, artifical intelligence, and more! You won’t have to twist any arms to get this homework done.Age-appropriate children's computer programming curriculum!
You can find many computer programming books in the bookstore. However, most of these books are written for adults already in the programming industry. Students who try to learn programming from these books often get frustrated and give up quickly.Our computer programming courses are created specifically for kids and teens. The textbooks are written in a fun, yet informative manner. We teach the basic concepts slowly, allowing the student to stay interested and engaged. After each chapter, the student is given an opportunity to test out their new skills by completing a hands-on programming activity. We fully support homeschool teachers and other public/private school parents who want to give their children computer science opportunities, yet have no expertise themselves.
Our KidCoder curriculum is light-hearted and easy-to-learn, with plenty of detailed examples and guidance to keep your student on the right track. This series is geared for younger students or those just trying out the field of computer programming to see if they like it.
Our TeenCoder Series is aimed at older students looking for a more in-depth study of computer programming. TeenCoder contains college-prep material that will give the student a leg-up in their pursuit of a career in the field of computer programming.
