We require our students to meet certain pre-requisites in coding experience based on our Coding Lab curriculum. If you’re interested in coding classes at Coding Lab, please send us a message or signup for a trial class.  

Yes! We have a number of options for Minecraft specific coding classes in summer with small class sizes, where teachers can help students learn new coding and work on their coding projects.  

• 1 hour Sunday Minecraft Cup coding lessons
  (4:00pm–5:00pm)
• 5-Day Minecraft camp focused on Minecraft Cup. 
  (June 12–June 16) 
• Summer 5-day Minecraft coding camps.
  (June — Sept)
• Sunday STEM Lab: Scratch & Minecraft
  (1:30pm–3:30pm)
• Private Coding Classes 

We want all students on the team to feel confident about coding in Minecraft, be successful, and help contribute to the success of the team.  Since we focus on using coding to make our world, it’s important that students know the basics of Minecraft coding.  

Participants are required to attend all 4 of the compulsory Core Meetings, as well as at least 3 of the Optional Meetings.

Participation in all weekly meetings is strongly encouraged. This is to ensure that all participants take part in working together with their teammates in coming up with ideas, taking part in the creation of their project, and completing their project in time before the project completion date.

Exceptions can be made if a student cannot attend one of the core meetings.  But we want all the students to experience and contribute to the planning and design phase of the project.  

Participants will get the full support from both Coding Lab Singapore and Japan, as they will be coached by our experienced, dedicated educators weekly until the project completion date. 

Whats Included

• Complimentary Official Minecraft Cup Registration + 1-year Minecraft Education License.
• Full support from Coding Lab tutors through our training camps and weekly coaching sessions
• Access to Minecraft servers (Servers maintained by Coding Lab 10am – 10pm, during competition)

What You’ll Learn

• Practice and learn new coding skills
• Teamwork and leadership
• Research and learn about the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
• Learn PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act)
• Be creative and innovative

Yes, we want all team members to attend the 4 core meetings and at least 3 of the optional meetings.  We think it is important for team member to meet-up often, plan, organize, code, build, learn to work as a team, and have fun together!  

YES!

Participants are encouraged to attend ALL the optional meetings. In previous years, participants usually have attended a majority of the weekly meetings. As every participant needs to contribute meaningfully to the final project in terms of the code and design, we strongly recommend attendance at all meetings.

That being said, we understand that students may be busy and may have other things on on weekends (e.g. Family dinners, etc.), and that’s why we allow the flexibility of choosing which Sundays to attend. The fees for the training is also based on a minimum attendance of 3 optional meetings (i.e. we do not charge for the other 7 that we hope you’ll attend!). The important thing is to learn and contribute, and have fun along the way!

Only with advance notice, for the 1-hour class, this class will be adjusted to another Sunday 4pm if it is during the Minecraft Cup period, but it will not be available after the Minecraft Cup meeting is over.
