Moana is a Disney children's film in which the company βασίστηκε για να παραδώσει μαθήματα κωδικοποίησης σε παιδιά. Έτσι, μόλις κυκλοφόρησε το Moana: Wayfinding With Code, ένα free φροντιστήριο που δίνει στα παιδιά μια εισαγωγή στις βασικές αρχές της ανάπτυξης λογισμικού, μέσα από ένα απλό γραφιστικό περιβάλλον που θυμίζει παιχνίδι.
In these basic software courses, the younger player must guide it Moana and Maui - the two protagonists in the film - across the ocean to fish in their boat, avoiding pirates. Each route is also a level and is realized by constructing small logical programming diagrams.
To make it easier for young users to use the chart, they draw the right command in a window instead of typing them from memory.
The web application Moana: Wayfinding With Code is available in more than 180 countries and 23 languages, unfortunately not including Greek.
The seminar is part of it Hour Of Code. This isn't the first time Disney has created a website with coding lessons. Over the past two years, Disney has launched two-hour Code tutorials featuring various characters from the Frozen and Star Wars movies. The company reports that in total, more than 40 have played with these courses millions students.
