Lots of schools have been getting students to create their own games, programs and apps by writing code.
- What have you found useful this year?
- Why has it been useful?
- Are there any websites or links you would suggest to others?
Ideas are on Mr Smith’s website
At home I managed to make two (useless) programs using a program called Visual Basic 2008. My dad had a copy of it and an instruction book. My first program was just a program with a splash screen and a button saying (QUIT) in it.
My other program was a test to make a progress bar work. I got it to work eventually.
Well done Alistair

My dad works at a company named Agilent Technologies and he is an engineer.
I really enjoyed making and programing on kodu game lab.
It is free for Windows machines and £3.99 for Xbox

My dad works in coding as he is a director at a big gaming company called ENTNET . Coding is really important as you can make almost any game or animation with it!

Well done with your Sphero work. Try and remember the connectivity is via Bluetooth.
I found the learning the coding game useful so I would recamed that website
