Abstract

This proposal introduces a video game summer camp designed to motivate children to learn 21st century skills. Camp participants learn to solve problems, work in groups, design software, and understand the economic and management issues associated with game development. The participants develop analytical skills by looking critically at games through the lens of a game designer.  Participants learn to identify components of game design, development, and production.
