About Course
Solve puzzles, build, and create games with fun coding in Minecraft
Unleash your child’s creativity through Minecraft while learning block coding with MakeCode and Arcade. Students will build, modify, and explore their own Minecraft worlds—all while learning the basics of programming in a fun, interactive way.
Part 1 – Minecraft Coding Camp 1
Let the fun begin! We start from the very basics of coding concepts in this fun-filled class. Students solve puzzles by coding an agent in the Minecraft game to move, take actions, and react to the environment. They are also given the opportunity to build open-ended puzzles on their own. We will cover core coding concepts including sequence, conditional, loop, and more. All the puzzles and the projects are designed by our curriculum experts exclusively for Create & Learn.
Part 2 – Minecraft Coding Camp 2
Students start to spend more time building open-ended projects in part 2, which allows them to expand their imaginations and be creative even more easily. We also advance to teach intermediate coding concepts such as variables, event, and function. Using Minecraft as the platform, students can code to place and break blocks, build structure, spawn animals, develop mini-games, and a lot more. Not only can they play Minecraft, they can create their own favorite games as well!
Part 3 – Minecraft Coding Camp 3
Build your own battle game that fights off zombies and see who is better at the rock, paper, scissors game built you build in Minecraft! This is the last of the series of coding classes based on Minecraft Education Edition. We will practice and learn more about how to use variables and functions to make our code a lot more efficient and reusable by building two fun games. The game logic and components are also more complex. Code and have fun building cool projects!
