Roblox Studio: Beginner Game Design and Lua

This personalized 1-on-1 Roblox Studio course is designed for homeschool learners who are new to game design and coding. Tailored to each student's pace and interests, the instructor guides beginners through building and scripting interactive games using Lua. Lessons begin with the fundamentals of Roblox Studio and 3D building, then introduce core programming concepts such as variables, conditionals, functions, loops, tables, object manipulation, and event-driven logic. Multiplayer basics are covered where relevant to the student’s project. Instruction emphasizes hands-on, project-based learning: students write real Lua code while designing assets and gameplay, receive live demonstrations, and get immediate debugging support. Scaffolded challenges reinforce concepts and gradually increase complexity so learners stay supported and challenged. By the end of the course students will have a completed, playable Roblox game they helped create and can publish to their Roblox account. The class is appropriate for homeschoolers ages 7–12 (grades 3–7) and focuses on building practical skills, creative thinking, and problem solving through coding and design.
