Coding With AI is a hands-on course for middle and high school students who want to build real games and web apps — with AI as their coding partner. Students work inside Visual Studio Code, the same tool professional developers use every day, and leverage ChatGPT and Google Gemini to generate, refine, and debug code faster than ever. From building a JavaScript number-guessing game to designing physics-based mechanics inside the Unity game engine, every session produces something you can actually play and share. This course doesn't just teach you to code — it teaches you to code smarter in the age of AI.
