Coding Fundamentals

*Bu içerik, tercih ettiğin dilde çok yakında mevcut olacak.

Lesson Description: Explore the coding concepts of functions, loops, and if/then statements with mini-projects that can be added to Roblox experiences like color changing platforms and traps.

Lesson Objectives
  • Demonstrate the logic of if/then statements by modifying a part's properties.
  • Practice troubleshooting by independently fixing issues in scripts as encountered.
Skills and Concepts
  • Property - Something that controls how an object looks or behaves, like color or if players can walk through it.
  • Loop - A set of code that repeats until told otherwise.
  • Function - A set of instructions can be e re-used in different parts of a script.

Lesson Plan

Introduction

  1. Explain today's session will be different mini-projects to develop skills in scripting.

Guided Tutorial - Working with Properties

  1. Lead students through the following tutorials:

  2. Encourage students to troubleshoot independently if they have an error. To help, have them try:

    • Redoing their last few steps.
    • Asking a peer for help.

  3. As students write code, check that students write comments that accurately describe the code.

    • Not Specific: Runs code
    • Improved: Changes color of PracticePart

Guided Tutorial - Coding a Trap

  1. Lead students through the following tutorials:

  2. When working with if statements, check that students indent code to look like code samples. This helps make the code more readable, which becomes important as scripts grow larger.

Wrap-up

  1. Recap what students have created and vocabulary: property, loop, and function.

Appendix

Troubleshooting and Classroom Tips

  • While coding, remind students to double-check their capitalization or ask a peer to check their work. Even one incorrect letter can cause an error in longer words like FindFirstChildWhichIsA.
  • Try the following below to help students develop troubleshooting skills.
    • Purposely make a mistake in your code and ask students to identify the error. This can be easily turned into a game with students as you challenge them to find the error in a limited amount of time.
    • Write a partial line of code and ask students to complete it.
    • Utilize 'Ask 3 Before Me' where students ask three peers before asking the teacher for help. It's important for students to become comfortable independently troubleshooting as they advance to more complex projects.
