ACTIVITY OUTLINE:
Looking to level up your game design skills and help your students stand out in the National Game Design Challenge? Join us for a 1-hour session with Associate Professor and Founder of Arludo Michael Kasumovic.
During this session, Michael will share with you the essentials of creating a winning science game for the National Game Design Challenge. You will be guided through each step of the process, from brainstorming your game topic to designing how players will interact with your game to creating eye-catching aesthetics that will make your game stand out from the rest. We’ve ensured that everyone can become a game designer and bring their idea to life – no coding necessary!
This session will highlight how easy and simple the student-led lessons are for teachers to pick up and incorporate into their curriculum.
