Summary - New: 3rd Edition
The unit is an introduction to the fundamentals of computer programming and games design via Kodu, a highly intuitive graphical development environment developed by Microsoft Games Lab and the winner of a BETT award in 2014. Pupils will be introduced to the idea of computer programs requiring a precise series of statements and, through using Kodu, will understand how to build a world and program characters and objects before moving on to enhance their games with more advanced features.
The unit also includes a free lesson incorporating the BBC micro:bit which can also be downloaded as part of the free sample below.
