: Hour of Code (private)
Hour of Code
Time:
Speaker: Christian Hujer
Location: private in
Pune, India
Overview
The Hour of Code is a global movement reaching tens of millions of students in 180+ countries. The movement brings the fascinating world of computer programming to those who don't know about it yet. Kids (…especially 6 - 13 yr olds…) and adults who have never seen a line of code get an opportunity to write code (…with some help of course…) and see its impact first hand… :-)
The Event
The event will feature a 1 hour introduction to the world of code. In creative ways, we will demonstrate how simple it is for anyone to learn the basics of code.
After that, we will do some basic steps in HTML to teach the audience about building websites.
Fun Activity
With some of their favorite cartoon characters, kids will learn how to arrange basic blocks of code to animate the characters on a screen, eventually designing a small game in an hour.
That's right! Your kids will design a small game in an hour … :-)
Prerequisites
Unfortunately, we don't have enough spare machines for this exercise. So your kids will have to bring their own laptops or tablets for this event.
