🧭 How is the course structured?
The course follows a guided progression from foundations to a complete multiplayer game:
- Foundations: setup + world + arena
- Game structure: HUD + state machine + teams
- Core gameplay: ball mechanics + scoring + interactions
- Robustness: timers, resets, spectators, late joiners
🎚️ Different challenge levels
Each lesson supports three levels so mixed groups can learn together:
- Advanced challenge: high autonomy, minimal guidance
- Guided challenge: clear steps, students implement solutions
- Step-by-step support: scaffolded learning for beginners
🤖 AI as learning support (responsible use)
AI is used as a tutor and debugging assistant. Students receive prepared prompts with the full context of each task, helping them ask better questions and understand solutions—without turning learning into copy-paste.
📊 How is learning evaluated?
- Continuous evaluation (no single final exam)
- Competency-based assessment: reasoning, implementation, collaboration
- Learning from errors with feedback loops
- Final project: a functional multiplayer VR game
🎯 Final project
By the end of the course, students will have:
- Designed
- Programmed
- Tested
- Played
A fully functional multiplayer VR game, demonstrating real-world technical skills.
🚀 Why this course matters
Technology shapes the world we live in.
Understanding how it works is no longer optional.
This course helps students move from being consumers of technology to becoming creators, problem-solvers, and critical thinkers — skills that are essential in today’s and tomorrow’s digital society.
