IT CAMP
VIrTUAL

IT camp is for all levels in which we will meet students were they are and move forward from there . We ' re using a free , open source programming tool called GDevelop . GDevelop is a deceptively powerful programming tool that essentially developed its own language to help people create games relatively simply and quickly . It could be likened to a " drag and drop " style of code but it ' s slightly more complex . With this program we can create side scrolling games , survival games , and so much more - the possibilities are truly endless !
