Syllabus for the week

(The content can change until May 2025)

Day 1:

On the first day, we log into the server, and each student gets their own space where they will build their creations throughout the week. Different types of escape rooms are introduced, and we begin designing our own version in Minecraft. We build the game's starting point, from where the escape room will begin, and we also get to know some basic Redstone mechanisms.

Day 2:

On the second day, we create the entrance to the first room and then start building the second room. Various hints and clues are placed inside the rooms to help players progress to the next room. By the end of the day, we also begin planning the third room.

Day 3:

After building a unique door for the third room, we start constructing a labyrinth, which will be illuminated by Redstone-powered lamps. We then build the fourth room, where players will have to navigate through hidden traps, and we begin preparations for the next room.

Day 4:

On the fourth day, we will learn about new Redstone mechanisms and create different types of flip-flop circuits. We also prepare the sixth room, which will be accessible by entering a binary code.

Day 5:

On the final day of the camp, we finalize our escape rooms and build the last room, which will be the treasure chamber.

Teaching Methods:

Everyone can learn programming and digital literacy. Our curriculum contains fully gamified, modular, and innovative lessons to make learning FUN.
