🕐 0:20 - 0:40 | Hands-on: AI-Powered Coding

1. Open bolt.new on laptops.
2. Prompt students to type:

"Make me an HTML website game fill in the blank" - fill in the blank with any idea you have!

If you want help coming up with ideas you can type:

Can you give me some ideas for prompts that will generate fun HTML games and use emoji?

🔍 Discuss:

• What do you see? 🤔
• What kind of game did you create?

🛠 Tweak & Hack:

Try asking Bolt

"Use emoji"

"Make the cars bigger."

"Change the background color to blue."

"Make it a two-player game."

🎮 Exploration Time:

• Give students 10 minutes to explore, tweak, and "hack" their games.
• Pair up! Each student plays their neighbor’s game.
• Encourage experimentation:
  • 🎨 Change colors
  • 🔊 Add sound effects
  • 🏎 Adjust difficulty

Intro to GitHub: Hosting Your Game

🎥 See video tutorial here.

🌐 What is GitHub?

GitHub is like a magic folder where you save and share your website.

📁 Create a GitHub Repository:

1. Go to GitHub.com & login
2. Click Repositories → New.
3. Name the game (e.g., car-race-game).
4. ✅ Check "Add a README file."
5. Click Create Repository.

⬆️ Uploading Code to GitHub

📜 Copy the game code

🖥 On GitHub:

1. Click "Add File" → "Create new file."
2. Name it index.html.
3. Paste the code.
4. Click Commit (Green Button).

🚀 Now make it live!

1. Click on Settings (top right of repo).
2. Scroll down to GitHub Pages.
3. Under "Branch," select main and hit "Save."
4. The website will take a few minutes to "deploy" so go play your game once and come back.
5. At the top of your setting pages you will see the link for your website!
6. 🎉 Your website is now live! Share the link with friends! 🌍
