Have you wondered what it would be like to work at a computer animation studio, as a game developer, or as a composer of electronic dance music? In this course, we will create pictures, animations, music, and interactive games using the Scratch block-based programming language. We will learn fundamental topics in computer programming through collaborative projects, covering principles such as variables, loops, conditionals, and method calls. Once you have these tools at your command, you will have the opportunity to create increasingly complex and remarkable projects! You will have the freedom to see how far you can take your programs as we learn about more advanced modules for the Scratch programming environment. The software that we will use is free, so you can continue learning and creating even after the class is over. This course is designed for students who have some experience with Scratch programming; however, students new to Scratch will be quickly brought up to speed and are welcome to apply!
