ProCodeCG – Darul Hikam – Kids Coding Class – 20 September 2019

Our class today 🙂 Lots of progress and excitement going on 🙂

Darrell

now can add scores to the game

and add levels so when the player has reached certain score, the game will move to the next level 🙂

Darrel is very excited to improve the game 🙂 He seems to be happy playing his own game 🙂

Dipta is back 🙂

today Dipta is doing a challenge to learn more about basic programming

And so does Maliq 🙂

drag and drop programming is very effective to teach kids basic programming logics

Rifqi had finished the LightBot challenge and now he’s speeding up doing the next challenge

Rifqi has finished all the maze challenges

and started the bird challenge 🙂

Mandala is busy improving his game

by arranging the room

and adding more sprites

Hanif’s project for today is ultrasonic with buzzer

and as soon as it’s done, next is to add LEDs

The buzzer will active in certain frequency when it detects object in certain distance, and certain LEDs will light up too 🙂

all is working well, great progress for today 🙂

Capt. Bullitt is having lunch before starts teaching 🙂

Capt. Bullitt has to make sure each kid gets assistance needed in the class 🙂

Acha still has lots of ideas to be put in the game 🙂

The game is getting more advanced each time 🙂

you can tell the complexity of a game by checking out how much the objects involved 😀 take a look at these 🙂

Khalis is busy doing Minecraft Hero Adventure, this is more advanced than what his peers have done 🙂

Sami’ is doing two challenges for today: Minecraft Hour of Code and LightBots 🙂

even though Sami’s has started creating games, these challenges is important to develop structured thinking for problem solving

The class 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 7 Sept 2019

Time to be productive and make progress 😉 Every kids in our regular class have their own target and we make sure that they are making progress each week 😉

Ara is still preparing for upcoming Young Scientist Competition. He has prepared an extended abstract, a poster and of course has also finished the code

what Ara should be doing is to test the steps and try different wifi to get empirical data and measurement

Today Ara is trying to be an Evil Twin, to see how difficult it is to set up the attack

Aidia is starting a new project: hand gesture recognition 😉

the code is very long, so Aidia took several breaks while typing it. And not yet finished, so we’re going to finish it next week

Aidia said she wanted to do the schematic first

The schematic is ready 🙂 After the code is finished, we’re going to test it 😉

Fadhlan, with SNAPBOT I and SNAPBOT II 😉

Fadhlan is developing SNAPBOT II with basic configurations before we add an optical mouse for drawing the map

but before he started, he helped Aidia to solder the gesture sensor 😉 Thanks so much, buddy 🙂

Fadhlan now needs the workspace twice as big since now there are two robots to be constructed 😀

Baran is going to continue intro to programming

by doing challenges with higher level of difficulties

this challenge is not only teaching about geometric shapes but most importantly is about loop and nested loop

then Baran can continue to learn some Python with CodeCombat

Techa is probably younger than Baran, but he can keep up with the lessons 🙂

after finishing maze puzzles

Techa also learns about geometric shapes, angles, loop and nested loop

and then: Python coding with Code Combat 🙂

Sam is figuring out how to activate his Object Recognition App for the Blind with voice

and he also working on the Juz’amma. Next week Sam will be given new project 🙂

Ihsan starts to learn basic electronics because he is interested to build his own robot

the first project: LED

and then more LEDs

then RGB LED

and then LED and button

Hafiz is performing more test to his machine learning project

and since there were so much troubles with synchronization between the learning system with the Scratch, we decided to develop the system using App Inventor

Kinan is still developing her Agario Game 🙂

Yogi is still figuring out how to make a code to enable a moving car to stop when we click left button mouse and move when we click again

we have to find a work around for this one

Koosha

connecting via remote to his server at home

He is configuring a port forwarding

to be able to connect to a Minecraft Server 😀

Fab is continuously making good progress 🙂

he can solve most of the difficult problems by himself. Just give him a simple hint and he will finish it 🙂

after this Fab will learn some Python programming before he can start creating his own game 🙂

The class

we spends hours doing this and time always flies! Until next week 😉

the first is multi function button to turn on two different LEDs

and then a traffic light with pedestrian button 😉

Sami’

started to create his own game 😉

he created his sprite based on Mandala’s character

and Mandala created his sprite based on Sami’s character 😀

Mandala’s first game 😉

Acha has been making huge progress since last week 😉

Acha’s game

Capt. Bullit helped Acha to improve the game

Ratu is also making progress today 🙂

This is Ratu’s first game (the background is in the making)

The main character is now can eat the donuts 🙂 Next Ratu will learn how to add scores and to move to the next level and also creating enemies that will run after the main character

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 3 Aug 2019

Our busy Saturday Coding activities 🙂

Aidia is preparing presentation slides for the exhibition 🙂

She will present at least 3 projects on the exhibition: robot, automatic railway gate system and color sorting machine 🙂

this is the color sorting machine 🙂

Aidia is little gir a very focus and big dedication 🙂

It is unbelievable that a 9 yo can make presentation slides like this 🙂

Capt. Faris is busy with research, being a teaching assistant

and tuning Badi’s ukulele 😀

We just found out that Badi can play ukulele, very nice 🙂

today we had to fix this error. Pavilion19’s website is down because the hosting is rerouting the IP address

we had to report the error to the hosting admin

too busy to get off the chair 😀 😀 D

we sent emails, called the call center, to finally make the website up again. The problem remaining is that we still had to wait to get cpanel activated again

Fadhlan is going to continue compas calibration

compass data readings

comparing the empirical data

and then uploaded the obsctacle avoiding + mapping code and test the robot

everything seems to work normally but we ran out of time, the robot ran out of battery and so did the laptop 😀

and also the engineer 😀 so we just called it a day 😀

Adit is back 🙂 after a looong time 🙂

he started to learn basic programming all over again for warming up

and making a great progress for today 🙂 Hoping to see you again in the next class Adit 🙂

Capt. Awa is working on the projects for the exhibition

this time it is the RFID projects. Awa created a game with RFID 😉

When you answer correctly (by tapping the correct RFID card), you will get scores 🙂

Faiz is ready to explore sensors today 🙂

Today it’s ultrasonic sensor 🙂

And Faiz wanted to learn the code line by line. He asked the meaning of each line 🙂

the ultrasonic readings 🙂

next class we will learn some other sensors before finally assemble the robot 🙂

Hafiz couldn’t access the machine learning server today

so we changed plan into creating apps with Thunkable

Hafiz learned how to create an app to recognize objects

The app has successfully detect objects, and Hafiz had successfully added text to voice module to the app 🙂 Great progress today, Hafiz 😉

Al

is in the mood of editing with Photoshop today 🙂

Al has beeen

Yogi is back after a while 🙂 Welcome back 🙂

Yogi picked it up where he left 🙂 We still figuring out how to create a little screen view using GameMaker Studio 🙂

and he also challenged himself with some coding puzzles 🙂

Zaaka is improving his another complex game 🙂

he created LOTS of room and you can imagine how complex the game is 🙂

Kishan keeps improving his game

and make it a very intuitive and interesting game to play 🙂

Kishan also carefully created awesome animations for the sprites, making his game looks very alive!

Syadad has been very seriously preparing coding for upcoming exhibition 😉

He had prepared many codes for building many structures in Minecraft, and going to invent new interesting structures 😉

Azmi is going to learn basic electronics today 😉

Capt. Awa helped Azmi installing Arduino and also copying ProCodeCG Handout to Azmi’s laptop

Azmi looked very interested in assembling things from the very beginning 😉

He is also willing to type in the code line by line. A very rare willingness for a kid 🙂

Finally Azmi got his LED blinking yayyy! 🙂

Azmi’s first Arduino project 😉

Tyo is now joining the regular class and continuing his controlling-arduino-with-app project 😉

we still have problems with connection and will make progress very soon

The class

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 27 July 2019

A busy and productive Saturday as usual 🙂 Plus we are preparing for the annual ProCodeCG Kids Exhibition on 17 August 2019 😉

Aidia’s mission today is to fix her Automatic Railway Gate Project, without pulling out the cables or destroying any decorations 😀

Aidia accidentally changed the code and we forgot to make backups so we had to figure out each of the port numbers go to which components 😀

schematic diagram by Aidia

rewriting the basic code (with just one ultrasonic sensor)

the circuits (and we totally had no idea which cable goes to which component :D)

After Capt. Awa tried to help and Koosha’s gave the idea to check the port and connection using avometer (which was a brilliant idea), Capt. Faris used his superpower: to code 😀 He created a brute force code to check which port connected to which component 😀

and we kept updating the note to make sure we wouldn’t lose it again 😀

the brute force code

allright we finally got all the ports 😀 Thanks so much Capt. Faris 😉

Fadhlan is going to replace Arduino Leonardo with Arduino Uno because after some libraries and board updates, we got serious errors when compiling with Arduino Leonardo and we really don’t have time because Fadhlan is going for the competition in October and should report the work for evaluation in August

But first: fuel for the engine 😀

now ready to work, making sure all the ports from Leonardo goes to the correct ones in Uno

finding the latest code

and then test the code for Arduino and for Processing

All components seemed to work fine

only the radar didn’t come up. We’re going to fix this real soon

Harraz is still working with Game Maker but insisting to create game in Roblox

So we told him why don’t he create Roblox with GameMaker? 😀

Badi certainly has lots of ideas to upgrade Pavilion19 website today 🙂

He updated the calendar and going to rearrange the layout to make it looks nicer 😉 And we are going to add some statistics showing how many people already booked Pavilion19 so far 🙂

Pavilion19 website on mobile phone browser

Capt. Awa is still working on the Panic Button

Clive is joining our Regular Class today 🙂 Welcome 🙂

Like the other, Clive had to go through Intro to Programming 🙂

including learning about procedures/functions 🙂

Sam is starting a new project today

To create app to recognize object for blind people. And then the app will use text to voice to inform the user about the object using voice 🙂

the code

testing the app

taking samples of as many objects as possible

Capt. Faris is busy as always today 🙂

Helping Sam to improve the app. Making sure Clive and other kids can do the tasks

helping Aidia debugging the project

and work overtime 😀 But he fixed everything needed to fixed today 🙂 Well done, Captain 🙂

Ara has been given homework and task to finished today. Attacking DVWA by stealing cookies and use the cookies to access the website

the result in BurpSuite

logging in to DVWA

and observed it via BurpSuite

and then typing additional codes. It is a long code so he said he’s going to continue it at home 😀

Al is working on the Sorting Hat Machine Learning project 🙂 With lots of encouragement and support of Capt. Awa 😀

Faiz started his Basic Electronics lesson today before learning to assembly his own robot 😉

under supervision of Capt. Faris 🙂

Starting with LED, button, buzzer and then microservo

next week we will learn about sensors 🙂

Syadad is looking handsome and neat today 🙂

he had finished LOTS of codes in the handout and start to explore new structures to be presented on our Exhibition

Syadad had built most of the code in the handout and he started to modify them to see what happens

Hafiz had two tasks to finished: to create a system to recognize object for blind people with machine learning and to recognize colors for color blind people 😉 He is really excited about this 🙂

Koosha hadn’t yet decided the title of his presentation on Exhibition but he’s now seriously working on optimizing multiple Minecraft servers and explore most of the plug ins available 🙂

Cean had finished his Minecraft Hour of Code challenge today

and the next is to learn some pattern with LightBot, but apparently this one it a bit to hard for Cean

so we moved on to Blockly Games to learn more about basic programming logics

The class, and all the joy and excitement in it 😉

ProCodeCG – Kids Private Class – Basic Electronics – 19 June 2019

It’s been a while since the last class and we have to revisit again what we did the last class 😀

the first one is to check the bluetooth connection

successful

and then testing speech to text app

works fine

and then working on connecting speech to text to Arduino

still not working

no sign of text on the serial monitor 😦 we need to work more on this bluetooth connection (same thing happened with the robot project so we really need to figure this out)
