It’s easy to begin and there are no limits, so kids don’t grow out of it. AgentCubes Visual Agent Talk language allows students to visually program their game components immediately, and our patented Conversational Programming makes correcting logic errors easy! AgentCubes has been proven to be engaging and inspirational to kids, and not just those in computer club.

Kids can get started right away creating their 3D characters! With the patented Inflatable Icons tool, simply draw them in 2D, and then inflate them to 3D with the press of a button. We have curricula to program a Frogger™ game in just ONE hour independently and our classroom curricula are for one- or two-week modules. Guided by tutorials when needed, kids create characters and worlds and program their behaviors with a drag and drop interface. Kids love it! How does AgentCubes Online Work? We balance challenge and masteryĪgentCubes Online is a programming environment that gets you started immediately with our intuitive, visual, built-in programming tools. Making a game teaches how computer games really work through incredibly fun and deeply engaging activities. Real skills that help them succeed at whatever they do in life. They get very engaged, and we wonder – why can’t we take that motivation into learning? Well, now we can! Allowing our kids to be producers of new technology (games, apps) teaches them creative problem solving skills, logic, and programming. Kids today can pick up just about any device or game and start playing or consuming immediately. What do kids learn from playing computer games? Here is a published paper showing how we measure Retention of Flow and here is a paper comparing the 3D Frogger activity to the Angry Birds Hour of Code activity. The retention of students is higher than with other activities simply providing artwork for kids. A sensational 65% of participants do continue. Big question: are they hooked enough by the programming that they go home and finish their game? You may wonder if creating their own 3D shape, e.g., the frog, is just a waste of precious programming time. If we create a cliffhanger activity and actually measure how many kids want to continue? In just one hour kids create their 3D characters, start to program and play with the early version of their game. When you are done make sure to submit your game so that no one else can edit it and you can continue working on it later! Teacher Notes How well does the Cliffhanger approach work? You can create anything you like! You can make a simple game or a super-sophisticated one that includes 3D layers, and multiple levels. Of course, you don't have to build a 3D Frogger game. In one hour you will create the beginnings of a 3D Frogger game that you can share with your friends. Create Your 3D Game Start programming your first game in less than an hour
