Brick Dodging Game

In this video you will learn how to program a simple game on the micro:bit the game will happen on the 5 x 5 screen and it will consist of the following
1. A random brick falling from the top of the screen will be programmed
2. The player will move a dot across the bottom of the screen using the micro:bit buttons.
3. The previous two will be combined into a Brick Dodging Game

About me
I have been a technology enthusiast from as long as I can remember with a special love for robots. I completed my Robotics degree at A.N.U and majored in Computer Vision. In 2012 after 5 years working as a Design Engineer, I decided to get into education. My first passion was bringing Arduino Programming and 3D printing to schools but I as the years went by Python became my new favourite toy for creating text based applications like chatbots and 2D games. Since 2015 I have been teaching part time while authoring books and online courses used by tens of thousands of students across Australia as well as doing extensive teaching training in collaboration with Digital Learning and Teaching Victoria.


About Head Start Academy
I believe that coding is an extremely useful and universally valued skill. Today most students in Australia experience some coding in school or in after school programs. Some students enjoy it immensely and are left wanting more, these are the students I want to help. My goal is to build on that enthusiasm, introduce them to like minded peers and help them learn the skills and habits that will set them on a path to excellence in Computer Science.
In our classes students will experience the following:
• Small group learning: 6 - 12 students
• Instruction from an educator who has university level qualifications in both education and Digital Technologies
• Minute by minute peer and instructor feedback on their code
• Lifetime access to learning materials (videos + pdf guides) for all the content covered
• Research skills and best practice use of coding websites like Stack Overflow and GitHub
This is the future of microcontrollers in education here is our playlist of 7 micro:bit + Python videos. Featuring programs that do brain training, reaction time and games involving balance dots, button mashers and space invaders style brick dodging.
