The Programming Basics course introduces programming for design and visually oriented outcomes. Part 1 of the course gives an overview of the history and nature of code, and teaches basics principles and builds on the basics of coding principles from the Bits and Atoms course, and covers object-oriented programming with Processing (java). Students apply their newly learnt skills by developing a game based on a supplied template.
In Part 2 of the course, students develop their skills further by focusing on graphics and visual possibilities with code. Students develop dynamic graphics which can be controlled with gesture-based interactions. Part 2 of the course runs simultaneously with Graphic Design Basics so that the student's work can be informed with a greater visual sensibility.
