Coding for Dino Run
Computer Science Club has always been one that draws the attention of students that like to spend time on their computers and know more about how programming works. Before break, TES students were working on recreating the Chrome Dino Runner game. Chunks of coding for the game were provided but then students had to correct, change, or modify the rest. Students bounced ideas off each other and showed one another what they produced. This project was in anticipation of them creating their own project which could include games, interactive stories, or other things they thought of using the tools at their disposal. Some of these coding concepts have been integrated into classroom curriculum and others are newly learned during club time, but Mr. DuVall, the Computer Science advisor, stated, “I started learning programming in 3rd grade here at Tully and I'm happy we're giving the next generations that same chance.” This club also gives students the opportunity to see if they would be interested in working in fields such as computer engineering, computer programming, or network infrastructure. Coding for Dino Run could easily give students the building blocks for a future in the IT world.
Students work on their coding skills together.
