Our CoderDojo, a programming meetup for kids and adults will start meeting this week. Our planned scheduled is Tuesday at 7pm for kids, and 8pm for adults, and Saturday at 10am for kids.
Our first topic is on learning Javascript and our first MakerSpace project is to create an event calendar system inside of a Minecraft server. We will then use the system to pull in Internet calendar info and graphics, e.g. to create dynamic posters for the current and coming attractions at the theater. Hmm, did I mention we are creating a Minecraft world to represent Greenbelt?
Additional topics and projects are welcome. Dojo meetings start with a discussion of projects and each participant teams up with a partner or two to work on their choice. We will always have tutorial lessons to get people started if they don’t know the topic of the day.
