2009+Games+up

Do you enjoy playing games on the computer, only to get told they are of no educational use? Here’s your chance to discover the language, mathematics, problem solving and programming behind ‘games’ by creating your own game using a programme called ‘Game Maker.’ You will learn to use the symbols, language and text of game creation such as: sprites, objects, events, actions and rooms. Never again will anyone be able to convince you that games have no learning benefit!
