Hour of Code | Dance Party: Warm Up

2
00:00:07,980 --> 00:00:11,720
(Miral, Dancer and Software Developer, Created
iLuminate) - Hi!

3
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,270
My name is Miral Kotb and I’m a dancer,
software developer, and creator of iLuminate.

4
00:00:16,270 --> 00:00:21,550
So, computer science relates to creativity
in numerous ways.

5
00:00:21,550 --> 00:00:22,560
Immeasurable, really.

6
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:28,480
I mean, once you have the ability to write
software you can put ideas into anything.

7
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,810
I do it with light suits.

8
00:00:30,810 --> 00:00:35,540
There's so much you can do once you have the
tools to write software, and the possibilities

9
00:00:35,540 --> 00:00:38,960
are really endless.

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:43,610
Over the next hour, you’re going to get
started with computer science by programming

11
00:00:43,610 --> 00:00:45,100
your own dance party!

12
00:00:45,100 --> 00:00:49,370
We’ve assembled some hit music and a team
of great dancers for you to play with.

13
00:00:49,370 --> 00:00:56,120
You’ll be using blocks of code to choose
different dancers, change their dance moves,

14
00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,320
make them respond to the music, and make them
interactive.

15
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:05,080
You’ll see that your screen is split into
three main parts.

16
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:06,600
On the left is the play space.

17
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,640
This is where your dancers will show up.

18
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,790
This middle area is the toolbox.

19
00:01:12,790 --> 00:01:18,060
New blocks of code will be available in this
space as you go through the lessons.

20
00:01:18,060 --> 00:01:21,580
The space to the right is the workspace.

21
00:01:21,580 --> 00:01:28,310
You can drag blocks out of the toolbox and
into the workspace to build your program.

22
00:01:28,310 --> 00:01:33,520
The instructions for each level will be up
here at the top of the screen.

23
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:40,770
If you need a hint, just click the light bulb.

24
00:01:40,770 --> 00:01:46,310
To start off, let’s make a new dancer with
this red block.

25
00:01:46,310 --> 00:01:52,770
First, drag it out of the toolbox and snap
it under this orange “setup” block.

26
00:01:52,770 --> 00:01:57,970
This dancer is a cat and its name is “my_first_dancer”.

27
00:01:57,970 --> 00:02:03,530
You can change the name to whatever you want
by clicking here.

28
00:02:03,530 --> 00:02:10,250
You can also change where the dancer appears
in your play space with this.

29
00:02:10,250 --> 00:02:13,420
Above the play space is a menu for picking
out music.

30
00:02:13,420 --> 00:02:19,120
There are a ton of songs to choose from so
have fun finding your favorites.

31
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,220
Under the play space is the run button.

32
00:02:21,220 --> 00:02:25,870
When you press run, you’ll see the dancers
from your program appear in the play space

33
00:02:25,870 --> 00:02:31,060
and the music will play.

34
00:02:31,060 --> 00:02:35,810
[Music]

35
00:02:35,810 --> 00:02:37,250
Try it yourself!

36
00:02:37,250 --> 00:02:39,110
And if you’re feeling stuck, it's okay!

37
00:02:39,110 --> 00:02:44,280
Just get up and get moving, and before you
know it, you’ll have made your own dance

38
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:45,280
party.

39
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,980
So, what will you create?
