Minecraft 不只是遊戲，更是一個能動手思考的學習空間。本書從玩家熟悉的遊戲場景出發，介紹 redstone 方塊如何模擬現實世界中的電路與程式邏輯，讓讀者在建造機關與裝置的過程中，逐步理解編碼思維。內容著重於「怎麼想」而非死背指令，鼓勵讀者觀察、嘗試與修正。書中大量運用照片、示意圖與整理圖表，將抽象的程式概念轉化為可視化的操作流程，適合對科技、工程與創作有興趣的孩子閱讀。Introduced in 29, Minecraft™ has become an enormous success with gaming kids and adults. Users love exploring and building within Minecraft’s mind-bogglingly large environments. This game allows users to practice STEM skills while having fun. One of its greatest strengths is its ability to teach coding principles with “redstone” blocks. These blocks can be used to make exciting machines and devices in Minecraft’s virtual world. With this volume, readers will learn the logic and technology behind coding with Minecraft™. Photographs, diagrams, sidebars, and a graphic organizer help reinforce basic coding concepts.Minecraft is a trademark of Mojang (a game development studio owned by Microsoft Technology Corporation), and its use in this book does not imply a recommendation or endorsement of this titl

Do programmers think differently than non-programmers? How do programmers approach problems and create solutions? This book explores several attributes of thinking used by programmers. Important STEM

When computer programming pioneer Admiral Grace Hopper discovered a moth causing problems in a mechanical computer, the term debugging was born. This book explores how fixing programming and hardware

Coding was once an inaccessible activity for elementary students, but not any more. Scratch is an exciting and easy-to-learn coding program for people of all ages. Instead of lines of text, users code

Coding for elementary students is a new and exciting learning opportunity, and this book will show readers how to get coding in just minutes with the program Hopscotch. Instead of lines of text, Hopsc

Usually we think of coding as something only trained experts and scientists can handle, but not any more thanks to programs like Python. First developed in 1991, Python uses lines of code, letters, an

No, it’s not dessert—it’s a tiny single-board computer for budding computer scientists to experiment with. This versatile product can be paired with simple coding software, such as Python and Ruby, en

Much like its older brother, Lego Mindstorms™, Lego WeDo™ kits offer young engineers the chance to design and program creations all by themselves. WeDo kits take the fun and technology of Mindstorms k

In 1995, computer programmer Yukihiro Matsumoto introduced Ruby programming language to the world. He created a language that used his favorite elements of other languages, but was more object-oriente

The first Lego Mindstorms™ sets were released in the early 199s. Since then, Lego’s line of buildable, programmable robots has become a sensation with budding coders all over the world. More than just
