Description

This course can be taken on any computer or mobile device. Students ages 5 to 8 will code their own maze game using MIT's coding engine for kids, Scratch. Starting by drawing three mazes of varying difficulty, connect the mazes as levels, add a character that is coded to move when pressing the arrow keys, and stop when hitting a maze wall. Students can also add enemies that stop the player from finishing a level for an extra challenge. Students will keep a working maze game by the end of the course.
