What is a Tynker project?

Edited

A Tynker project is a maker-generated creation that combines code, visuals, sounds, and interactive elements. Projects can include creative endeavors such as games, animations, stories, presentations, quizzes, and simulations.

Students and teachers utilize customizable assets within the Tynker block coding Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or text programming editors to bring their ideas to life.

Benefits of Tynker Projects

Tynker projects offer students a creative and self-directed approach to applying their knowledge of coding. The key benefits include:

  • Projects can be saved, allowing users to revisit and refine their work.

  • Users have the ability to remix projects, fostering collaboration and innovation.

  • Teachers can assign projects as lessons, integrating them into their curriculum.

Learning Through Projects

Tynker courses and lessons incorporate projects that teach students various coding concepts through engaging tutorials. This hands-on approach enhances the learning experience and encourages students to explore their creativity while developing essential coding skills.
