Participants will learn game design and programming using Javascript while building computer games. Classes are designed to teach youth new technology skills in fun and creative learning environments that reflect their enjoyment of using computers and online gaming.
The free classes are part of the library’s Southern California Edison Building 21st Century Skills for Tweens and Teens grant.
