I built a text-based game to teach JS/HTML, because I’m tired of boring video lectures.

Enhancing Tech Learning Through Interactive Game Development

Innovative Approach to Teaching Web Development Skills

In todayโ€™s digital learning landscape, traditional methods such as lengthy video lectures and multiple-choice assessments can often feel monotonous and disengaging. Recognizing this challenge, I embarked on a project aimed at transforming the way fundamental programming concepts are taughtโ€”by making them more interactive and compelling.

Introducing MicroLearn.me: A New Paradigm in Coding Education

The core philosophy behind MicroLearn.me is to utilize narrative-driven simulations to teach technical skills. Instead of passively absorbing information, learners actively participate in scenarios that mirror real-world applications.

For example, rather than just watching a tutorial on JavaScript loops, users step into the role of a drone operator conducting a mission. To complete their taskโ€”such as scanning for anomaliesโ€”they must implement a for loop to process sensor data. This immersive approach not only makes learning more engaging but also reinforces core concepts through practical application.
