Kodu Game Lab Create Your World – Hip Hop, Poetry and You

SPRING BREAK ACADEMIES
2016
Kodu Game Lab
You will design the game, rules and how to win!
Kodu lets you create your own game using its visual
programming language. To create your game, you
will use basic computer, math, problem-solving and
storytelling skills. After your game is finished, you
will test it out with other students and play their
games as well. John Haverkamp has a background in
artisanal crafts and computer software instruction
for youth and adults in university and community
settings.
