Introduction to JavaScript (drawing, animation) Workshop

June 10, 2017 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

 

This is a beginner to middle level workshop for local Hamilton students in Grades 4-8.

Have you ever wanted to learn how to use the JavaScript language to create fun drawings and animations? If you answered ‘yes’, then this is the workshop for you! Note: this workshop provides nutritional snacks and computers. Bus tickets are available to those who require transportation. A parent/guardian must pick up their child at 4:00 pm.

This workshop experience offers local Hamilton students the opportunity to learn how to create their own animations and drawings, using JavaScript (JS), in a hands-on environment. The workshop will focus on the use of Khan Academy, an easy-to-use online platform, where participants will learn the basics of JS through guided tutorials. They will have the opportunity to explore various JS concepts like drawing basics, how to colour outlines and shapes, how to animate drawings using variables, and more! After the session, they will be able to continue to explore to develop their coding skills and even show you their masterpiece!
