Virtual Video Game Design (school years 3-7)

Class requirements:

• Access to a computer or tablet to use Zoom.us and sufficient internet speed to stream video
• iPad with Infinite Arcade app installed (£2.99 app available on Apple store only)*

*Please note that we are running other classes that do not require iPads

In this 45-minute class, children will learn about what a video game designer does; have the chance to build their own simple video game without needing to code; and find out about user testing and iteration in video game design.

We will provide a class resource sheet for parents with what the class covers and some follow-up ideas to extend learning.

Classes are led by a qualified and experienced teacher and pupil numbers are limited.

Where you have two siblings joining, they may share an iPad or use one each.

Please be aware that to work online, we have had to modify the style and content of our popular workshops and classes. We usually provide lots of resources, collaboration time and direct teacher feedback. All of these will of course be limited during virtual classes, but we hope that children will still learn from and enjoy the class format.
