Creating Video Games can be used in a (Grades 4-12) classroom setting to:
- Enrich curriculum content – validate student interests and in some cases – career aspirations.
- Engage students in subject matter – have students create a video game for a health science unit: Bacterial Wars!
- Appeal to a range of students with diverse interests, skills and learning styles – analytical and mathematic skills, creative and artistic skills, organizational and leadership skills, and game playing & quality control evaluation skills.
- Exercise team building skills – have students work as a game design team as they go through the process of planning, designing and creating a video game. Alternate roles of team leader, designer, programmer, artist and game tester!
