Youth Digital Mod Design 1 - Online Course for MAC/PC

We gave this course to my 7yr old for his birthday. I cant believe how well done it is. He fist pumps his way through fun quizzes and troubleshooting adventure maps while learning to program. If this is the future of learning, sign us up for more!

Do NOT purchase this software. It no longer works. Company is out o business. The company sold out and changed their terms of service and Apex Learning will not honor any purchases. Previous purchasers are screwed.

I thought the presentation of the material was incredibly entertaining. My 11-year-old Minecraft fanboy was laughing out loud. This is the future of instruction - lectures via video crafted and perfected. Justins explanations are spot-on and are crystal clear. This is saying a lot given hes walking your kids through editing java code and the slightest mistake will cause a crash.

my kid is so proud to be a modder

Bought this for a 10 year old girl who absolutely loves computers and Minecraft. She worked through the lessons in about a week of long days. Shed spend all of her free time on this, so I am glad that I waited until after school was out for the summer.

I cannot praise the product enough. Let me start off by saying that I am an IT professional with a large background in programming. I will follow that statement up by saying, it didnt matter. Youth Digital has put together a fantastic package that my nine year old son is completely in love with.

this is an awesome program!

Have had this for a few weeks for my (barely) 12 year old son. We sat down and watched the classes together the first day...and that was pretty much all my involvement. Hes been able to completely do this on his own. Even running into a problem, he just emailed Youth Digital and Courtney quickly sent back a friendly and informative reply (and even copied it to me, to which Im thankful for the safety factor!). It is VERY hard to get that kind of customer service in todays world! And when I sat down to review what he did to try and fix the problem he was having, my son knew SO much. I kept saying how I was impressed with how he could zoom in and out and around the program and how he knew exactly what the teacher was saying to repair. (I had no clue.) I have to admit, Im not a mom who was overly thrilled that my son was obsessed with Minecraft. But this is a win-win as Youth Digital has made a game he thoroughly enjoys into an educational learning experience. I no longer feel like hes wasting his time, but investing it! Thanks Justin and Courtney! From One Happy Momma!

My husband bought this as a birthday gift for our daughter, who turned 8 this past Saturday and is obsessed with Minecraft. So far, were very impressed. I have to think that some of the reviews that comment on difficulty downloading & installing the various parts are a bit outdated, as we had to only download and install a single 500+MB file which took care of all the dependencies automatically. It seriously couldnt have been any easier.

My son loves this course. Hes made significant and steady progress in learning Java, and by extension, fundamental programming concepts.
