I improved in framing and composition. I practised during events and used the rule of thirds. I’m proud that one of my photos was chosen for the school newsletter.

Example 2:

I’ve improved in block-based coding. I created a mini-game using loops and variables. I'm proud that I designed my own world and made the game fun and challenging.

I learned how to work on my Canva journal as it helped me organise my ideas and photos better. I feel more confident now and would like to share my journal with the class.

Creating a prototype for our idea was hard at first. We didn’t know what materials to use. We discussed, tried different ways, and asked for help. I learned that persistence matter.

What do you see as your responsibilities as an IMC CCA leader?

Supporting teachers:

How can you actively support the teachers and mentors in IMC? Are there any specific tasks or initiatives you can take on to assist them?

Fostering collaboration and communication:

How can you foster a sense of collaboration and teamwork among club members? Are there any activities or initiatives you can organize to bring members together? Reflect on ways to improve communication within the club.

Any other support needed or comments?

and I am proud that I can code better now

I have also improved in making better decisions about what is necessary and what is foolish , basically what I need to destroy🥺

and what I need to keep.

Winning the competition was the cherry on top, but the real prize was the fun we had along the way. The friendships, the challenges we overcame, and the energy of being part of something bigger than ourselves that's what IVP was really about.

Here's to the wins, the memories, and the joy of doing what we love.

What seemed like very recently, I was also having this lesson last year saying farewell to the P6s.

Time goes very fast

we still have not build THE PATHWAY

we still have not build the pathway

we did not know where to build certain things (e.g. security post, happening, etc.)

• Minecraft Education Edition has a built-in Code Builder that supports block-based coding via MakeCode and Tynker. These platforms allow you to create simple scripts and game features using drag-and-drop blocks.

• MakeCode for Minecraft: MakeCode is a popular, easy-to-learn block-based coding environment. You can program with blocks and also switch to JavaScript for more advanced coding as you improve.

  • Start with basic commands like moving players or creating custom items.

  • The editor has a live Minecraft world, so you can immediately see the effects of your code in-game.

• Minecraft Education Edition Website

• MakeCode for Minecraft

2. Tynker

Tynker is another platform that uses block-based coding for Minecraft. It’s designed to be very beginner-friendly and focuses on teaching programming concepts through fun Minecraft challenges.

• You can learn how to create custom blocks, make Minecraft characters move, and even design mods using their platform.

• Tynker provides interactive lessons and project-based learning.

Resources:

• Tynker Minecraft Modding

3. Blockly for Minecraft

Blockly is a visual programming language developed by Google that uses blocks to represent code concepts. It’s similar to MakeCode and Tynker, and it’s used in some Minecraft modding platforms.

• You can start building simple structures and modify the game with blocks, which will give you an introduction to logic and programming concepts like loops, conditionals, and variables.

Resources:

• Blockly Website

4. Code.org’s Minecraft Hour of Code

Code.org offers a Minecraft-themed Hour of Code tutorial that uses a block-based coding interface. It’s designed for beginners and teaches basic programming concepts like loops, conditionals, and sequencing.

• The tutorial is available for free and allows you to control a character in Minecraft using blocks.

• It’s a great starting point for learning the basics and building a foundation for more complex coding in Minecraft later on.

5. Learn by Modding Minecraft with Block-based Tools

• Learn to code Minecraft features by creating mods using block-based tools. You can use these tools to create simple commands or items in the game, and they provide an interactive environment where you can visually see what you’re creating.

Resources:

• Learn-to-Program Minecraft with Tynker: Tynker offers specific lessons for making simple mods with Minecraft’s block-based interface, which is a great way to create your own modifications and structures in the game.

6. Minecraft Add-Ons (Bedrock Edition)

• If you're using Minecraft Bedrock Edition, you can explore Add-Ons, which allow for custom behaviors and features to be added using simple block-based code. These can be built directly within the game and allow players to modify existing entities or create new behaviors with minimal code.

• The Add-On system uses JSON and some scripting, but for simpler tasks, there are tools that help you work with this through a block-based approach.

Resources:

• Minecraft Add-Ons (Bedrock)

7. Scratch (With Minecraft Extension)

Scratch is a widely-used platform for beginners, and you can use it with Minecraft through extensions. It allows you to create interactive stories, games, and animations by dragging and dropping blocks.

• With the Minecraft Extension, you can control the game’s characters and objects through Scratch’s visual programming blocks. This is a fun and easy way to experiment with Minecraft coding and see the immediate effects in-game.

Resources:

• Scratch Minecraft Extension

8. Minecraft Redstone (for Logical Thinking)

• While not strictly block-based coding, Minecraft’s Redstone system allows you to build automated contraptions in the game. By learning how to use Redstone, you'll be practicing logical thinking and problem-solving, which are key skills in coding.

• Redstone works similarly to circuits and offers a way to create things like doors that open automatically, minecart systems, and more complex mechanisms that function based on logic.

Resources:

• Watch Redstone tutorials on YouTube.

• Explore Redstone building guides and books that provide step-by-step instructions.

9. Join Minecraft Modding Communities for Block-Based Coding

Participating in Minecraft communities where people share block-based coding tutorials or mods can help you get ideas and guidance:

• Reddit: r/Minecraft and r/MinecraftEducation are both great for asking questions and learning from others.

• Discord Servers: There are many Minecraft modding and coding servers on Discord where people share their experiences and offer advice on learning block-based coding.

Next Steps:

• Pick a platform: Start with MakeCode or Tynker, as these are easy to use for beginners and offer tutorials to help you get started.

• Start small: Begin by creating basic programs that change the world or the player’s actions, then gradually increase the complexity as you learn.

• Experiment: Try modifying existing mods or creating small projects that add new features to Minecraft.

• Keep learning: As you get more comfortable with block coding, challenge yourself with more advanced projects or switch to a text-based language like JavaScript or Java for deeper Minecraft modding.

By following these steps and using the resources listed above, you'll be well on your way to learning Minecraft coding with block-based systems and having a lot of fun in the process!

At first it was hard to agree on the location of the gate as everyone had different ideas on where to build. But when everyone listened to each others' ideas, we were able to choose the best ideas.

I see my responsibilities as a way to foster good values

Supporting teachers:

I can help my teachers give out the laptops

Fostering collaboration and communication:

I can strike conversations with my group mates due to my talkative nature

As I prepare to move on to the next phase of my life, I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for everything I’ve experienced during my time here. Working alongside such talented and driven students has been a true privilege.

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities I have had to grow, learn, and contribute to the work we did together. The memories and lessons from my time at IMC will stay with me, and I’m thankful for personal connections I’ve made along the way.

Collaborative spirit is what that makes IMC such a special place , that holds a special place in my heart.

I wish every IMC member and staff members like teacher and coaches Good Luck and farewell .May we meet again.

Warm regards,
kritish velan

Pls remember us

Good luck

and have fun with your secondary school!

I chose him because he is the Game Dev CCA leader and he did AVA with me on Monday.
