Mobile Game Development with Game Salad (OpenLearning)

Offered by Taylor's University,

In this course you'll learn the basics of gamification using Gamesalad Creator. The main purpose of this course is not show you how easy it is to create your very own game with a game creation tool like GameSalad Creator.

From week-1 to week-3, we will cover topics from installation to game development. There will be also tips for you to develop a good mobile game. If you encounter problem at any point of the development, do feel free to raise your questions in the forum. In week-4, it will be an online discussion session that helps you to complete the final product for the competition.

Programming Languages, Part A (Coursera)

CS: Software Engineering CS: Programming

This course is an introduction to the basic concepts of programming languages, with a strong emphasis on functional programming. The course uses the languages ML, Racket, and Ruby as vehicles for teaching the concepts, but the real intent is to teach enough about how any language “fits together” to make you more effective programming in any language -- and in learning new ones.

Problem Solving Using Computational Thinking (Coursera)

CS: Theory Computer Science

Have you ever heard that computers "think"? Believe it or not, computers really do not think. Instead, they do exactly what we tell them to do. Programming is, "telling the computer what to do and how to do it." Before you can think about programming a computer, you need to work out exactly what it is you want to tell the computer to do. Thinking through problems this way is Computational Thinking. Computational Thinking allows us to take complex problems, understand what the problem is, and develop solutions. We can present these solutions in a way that both computers and people can understand.

Games in Education: Gamification (OpenLearning)

Education

The principles in this course did not originate in a computer lab but, rather, from the acute neurological and psychiatric care wards of large hospitals. Thus this course presents general principles of gamification that can be applied to the full range of the learning spectrum, ranging from people with severe disabilities through to post-graduate and professional development applications.

Applied Text Mining in Python (Coursera)

Statistics & Data Analysis Data Science

This course will introduce the learner to text mining and text manipulation basics. The course begins with an understanding of how text is handled by python, the structure of text both to the machine and to humans, and an overview of the nltk framework for manipulating text. The second week focuses on common manipulation needs, including regular expressions (searching for text), cleaning text, and preparing text for use by machine learning processes. The third week will apply basic natural language processing methods to text, and demonstrate how text classification is accomplished. The final week will explore more advanced methods for detecting the topics in documents and grouping them by similarity (topic modelling).
