Game Design Coding for Kids in JavaScript

Where Else is the Program Used?

Simply Coding JavaScript Game Design course is used all across the United States and also in Canada, Africa and in the UK. Our largest followers are our great home school students. In addition to our home schoolers we also provide this courses for Charter, Private and Independent Schools in California, Utah, Arizona, Iowa, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Michigan and Tennessee. We’d love to help more schools introduce coding for kids and game design to their great students.

Why Game Design?

Don’t our youth spend enough time playing games? We don’t disagree with that statement, however games provide an excellent medium for a lesson plan. The best coders are those who can customize and make real attempts to code their own ideas. Ideas flow when students are asked to learn to code their own games or customize a specific part of a game. Students are engaged and enjoy the challenge more when these principles are center around a fun little game compared to a database or business like process. The logic found in coding games is no different than coding for a commercial product.

What’s the Goal?

The goal is to give kids confidence and a real coding experience to help them make more informed life decisions. The course also includes a full lesson on how to upload your games live on the web using github! Their github page will become their online coding portfolio. They’ll be able to share this with anyone they’d like to see their work including potential employers.

Code Your Own Browser Games

This great JavaScript Game Design courses teaches students real world JavaScript concepts through showing them how to code three different games. These game become very important to the student as their final project is to create their own custom JavaScript game from the beginning! Students will be able to refer back to these three working games to help them as they tackle coding their own ideas! There is no better way for a student to learn to code then by coding their own ideas.

Our Students get to learn how to manage their own coding workspace (on their desktop) and understand how different coding files work together to communicate! They will also learn how to create, export and display your own images and mp3 files into your code for people to see in their browser! They will keep all their work by saving it to their computer, a usb drive or a cloud account like google drive (whichever they prefer).

Simply Coding Provides STEM Education

Coding, the Creative Gift that Keeps on Giving!

At its core coding presents a world of problem solving. It forces students to think logically about different concepts and come up with a solution. The great thing about coding is the solution (unlike math) can have any number of possible answers. STEM education is all about helping kids understand real challenges and coming up with their own possible solutions. Coding is no different. During our lessons students will have lots of opportunities to write, customize and rearrange various lines of code. They will constantly be asked ‘if then’ type questions. For example, if ‘this’ happens then what would you like to happen next? They will use their great brain, through code to solve these challenges. All youth love to figure things out and and see real solutions happen right before their eyes.

“I learned more in the first day than I did in 6 months at school!”

Real World Coding for a Real Experience

Simply Coding students write real code using JavaScript, the #1 used language based on GitHub pull requests and open projects. The great thing about JavaScript is how simple it is to get started. All you need is a text editor and a browser! Our tutorials introduce a text editor, named Sublime with a link to a free download. All projects will be saved directly to the students computer to keep forever. This is important for students to understand the file tree and how to manage a workspace.

How We Teach

Learning to code is a line by line, step by step process. Each lesson will introduce a new coding concept in a fun engaging lesson. Each lesson is broken into smaller sub-lessons with interactions and video reviews. Students can learn by reading or watching the video as well as practicing writing code in our embedded editors. Each lesson ends with a step by step activity to add code to their game on their own computer!
