The three programming languages that will be introduced during this course have been written to allow students to develop early skills of object oriented computer programming and create animations and games while gaining understanding of the creative and logical concepts of computer programming.

The course will introduce delegates to the programs Scratch, Alice and Gamemaker 7.0. By the end of the day delegates will feel confident to use each of the programs and will have created animations and games. Attendees will feel able to take these skills back to the classroom to teach their students and will be given the resources and information to enable them to develop their skills further.
