1 Chaos Created /Code App and game development and coding workshops for schools

2 Coding workshops from Chaos Created We are a game and app development. We work on apps and games across mobile platforms and the web. Last year, we launched our coding workshops for schools, hoping to inspire the next generation of programmers.

3 Chaos Created launches app/coding workshops for primary and secondary schools! Chaos Created is pleased to announce the launch of Chaos Created Code Workshops for primary schools, secondary schools, and for teachers too! Primary school pupils in England are being taught computer programming as part of an overhaul of the national curriculum that saw ICT replaced with Computing Skills across all levels of education, from September We run Chaos Created Code workshops for Primary and Secondary school pupils, and we can help teachers get to grip with programming and app development. We run half and full day workshops for large, hour-long lessons (on a regular or semi-regular basis), and also training for teachers too (on inset days or when convenient). We teach the principals of coding, technical know-how, and the practical side of apps and getting ideas to market. We tailor our workshops to the age group, and their experience. Chaos Created is made up of individuals with vast knowledge of web and app development, along with workshop and teaching experience. We have a bunch of apps on the market including Timedancer and Zombies Ate My City, both of which were featured on BBC s flagship technology show, BBC Click. We ve also got experience leading workshops. We ve been guest speakers at TeenTech days, appeared on several podcasts (Including Media Pulp and Off The Wall), and we ve spoken at BAFTA about transmedia and app development. So, if you re looking for a one-off workshop, or regular classes we ve got something for your and your pupils!

4 Why now? Primary school pupils in England are being taught computer programming as part of an overhaul of the national curriculum that saw ICT replaced with Computing Skills across all levels of education, from September Now is a great time to give your pupils an advantage. One of our app workshops will prepare your students with the coding fundamentals, some fun collaboration sessions, and some real development skills to help them take their app and games ideas further!

6 Who We Are: Our Projects We have produced apps and games for many years, beginning with PC games, and evolving into modern apps and games for consoles, phones and tablets. Two of our apps, Zombies Ate My City and Timedancer, were featured on BBC Click. We are currently working on a new mobile game called Bad Day for a Balloon Ride which will launch on consoles, phones, and tablets early this year.

We have built apps and games for TES, Tesco, Nokia, and Immediate Media

7 Who We Are: Our Clients In addition to our own apps and games, we have also worked on apps, games, and run workshops with some big names. We have built apps and games for TES, Tesco, Nokia, and Immediate Media (Formerly BBC Magazines), and we ve run app and games workshops for TeenTech across the UK.

8 What we do! We run Chaos Created Code workshops for Primary and Secondary school pupils, and we can help teachers get to grip with programming and app development too.

9 What we do! We run half and full day workshops for large groups (up to a hundred pupils), hour-long lessons (on a regular or semi-regular basis), and also training for teachers too (on inset days or when convenient). We teach the principals of coding, technical know-how, and the practical side of apps and getting ideas to market. We tailor our workshops to the age group, and their experience. For primary school pupils, we have a series of games and activities to help illustrate the basic of programming before they even touch a computer. For more experienced pupils, we ll spend our sessions making some simple games and apps that can then be used within the school. We will also workshop ideas, and think about how they fit into the modern world of smartphones, tablets, sensors and social networks. We have workshops and lessons to suit pupils of all ages from primary level through secondary education, and we run workshops for teachers too! Our goal is to make coding, and app development, fun and accessible.

10 Pricing Day/Half Day Workshops A half day or full day workshop in which we come up an idea, workshop the methods for creating an app, and build a prototype with the whole class collaborating on an app or game, all in one morning/afternoon/day! These workshops are tailored to the age group. We have games to help four and five year olds understand coding fundamentals, and something a bit more technical for older primary pupils and secondary school students. Either way, we ll leave you with the app/game we ve made for you to use within your school and develop further! This is a great way to introduce pupils to coding concepts, and show them what they can achieve, working together, in a short space of time. Half Day VAT Full Day VAT

11 Pricing Regular Class Sessions We can run a series of classes, covering the principals of coding, the forming of app ideas, planning development, and coding an app/web site/game. Our classes are tailored to the age of the learners we have fun games to teach the youngest pupils the fundamentals of coding, with practical exercises for older pupils (including Year 5/Year 6 pupils, and secondary school students). We have full 6-week courses to guide pupils from programming theory, through coming up with ideas, and ending with actual app development VAT per session (discount available on booking a full course)

12 Pricing Teacher Training If the idea of teaching children programming scares you, we have the perfect workshop for you! We can teach teachers the principals of coding, some coding techniques, and how to explain the more complex ideas to your own pupils! Half Day VAT Full Day VAT
