About
Digital Dragon's weekly ONLINE class requires an Apple (MacOS), PC (Windows OS) or Chromebook. The use of a computer mouse, not a laptop trackpad, is strongly recommended. Classes will be held virtually, with a live instructor through the Zoom platform.
DESCRIPTION:
Do you love to write and illustrate your own stories? This class takes young storytellers on an adventure to create multimedia projects, bringing their creations into the digital world. We’ll use digital design tools and the Scratch programming language to create games and stories to share with family and friends. Students will learn how to create custom art assets, develop exciting story narratives, and code their projects to make interactive adventures.
REFUND POLICY:
* Full refund, 1 week before the first day of an online class session
* Within a week of a class starting, a partial credit may be offered if there is a wait list and the spot can be filled.
* Once classes start, NO REFUNDS.
* No credits nor refunds for absences due to illness or otherwise.
