Learning to Code for Kids & Beginners with MIT Scratch

Learn Programming Fundamentals that take you from a beginner to a game designer in no time!
What you'll learn
Learn the Fundamentals of Coding
Learn MIT Scratch -- a free to use visual coding (you drag and drop blocks) platform that is a great way for 1st time coders to learn
Quickly go from a beginning coder to a more advanced coder by learning a simple step-by-step problem solving approach rooted in the fundamentals
Code games and other projects from start to finish (from idea to fully realized game)
Students should leave this course with a great foundation in the fundamentals of coding and be ready to more easily learn new programming languages
Requirements
No prior coding or programming experience needed, you just need a sense of adventure and a willingness to hang in there when things go wrong -- because bugs and missteps are a normal part of programming and that's okay! We're going to learn from them and become better programmers because of them.
Course is probably best suited for anyone 10+ years of age, but all ages are welcome
Description
In this course students of all ages are welcomed to learn the fundamental programming fundamentals that have allowed me to be a professional coder for the past 20 years.  After laying a great foundation by learning the basics, we'll advance to the challenge-based project section of the course where students will be able to complete fully functional games by taking a step-by-step approach, breaking down complex problem into simple solvable steps.  We'll do it all on the free MIT Scratch platform that provides a great visual drag-and-drop code editor which is perfect for beginner programmers who are just beginning to code. I'll present each step of each project as a challenge and then provide full in-depth solution video along with all the Scratch Challenge Projects and Solutions where students can take on the challenges and also learn from my code. I really hope you'll join me inside this course to experience the joy of coding and also to unlock a valuable skillset that is super relevant in today's modern world.  Upon creating this course you'll be super well versed in not just Scratch, but also the Fundamentals of Programming which apply to just about every coding language on the planet.  In other words, this is just the beginning. I hope you use this course as a springboard to lots of fun and fruitful future endeavors with programming.cheers,Greg
Who this course is for
This course is for anyone who has a curiosity about programming (or creating games) no matter what your age. That same curiosity led me to programming years ago and I'm so glad it did as I've been able to make it a part of my professional career for the past 2 decades.
