Through a combination of creative thinking, problem-solving, testing and technical skills, students will be encouraged to think about the why for each kind of app, along with being inspired to create every time they have a great idea! Projects include: C creating a rhythm game (similar to Guitar Hero), word games, and clicker games. Prior coding experience is not required.
