PARTNER SESSION: Game-U - Engaging students in STEAM with video game design
Educators understand the benefits of exploring STEAM subjects through an integrated lens. But, combining these concepts in a teachable format is hard. Join GameU CEO, Michael Kawas, and NYC teacher, Michelle Carrique, as they explore:
- Benefits game design as a vehicle for teaching STEAM skills and engaging students
- Motivations for, and impacts of, introducing game design at Susan Wagner High
- Advantages of live access to video game creation professionals – for teachers and students
With 85 percent of US teens playing video games recreationally, introducing game design to CTE curriculums can transform students’ love of gaming into valuable STEAM skills.
