Event Overview

Game development has been democratized in the past few years with the introduction of Unity, a free, professional-quality development and coding environment. It wasn’t designed with kids in mind, but we think it’s one of the most fun ways to get kids coding and creating digital worlds. It’s not easy, but it’s very powerful. What they create with it is entirely up to them! In this recurring 3 hour workshop, we cover the basics of Unity, including creating your first scene, creating and manipulating primitive objects, and the basics of coding in C#. One class will get you rolling, but we’re willing to bet it will only whet your appetite. Don’t worry! This course is repeatable, allowing you to brush up on your basics, use this time to practice, or get expert advice from from our guides.

MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST

The Bit Space curriculum engages youth with "Making". Guiding them through a range of skill building activities valuable for any future they may invent.

+applied science, computer science + math
+creativity, imagination & self expression
+design based, analytical thinking
+freedom to tinker
+critical problem solving
+how the world works and how new technology is changing it
+importance of craftsmanship
+hands on, real world skills

Making things is a rewarding and effective activity that engages both creative and analytical thinking and which fundamentally appeals to most kids. In making are two important and often underdeveloped values, the pride of one's craft and the empowerment of creative agency. It is clear our children have the power to do amazing things when their imagination is connected to the right resources. At Bit Space, creators benefit from the combination of free exploration and guided learning in a cool space with great resources.
