Video Game Design and Programming Concepts is a contemporary approach to introducing basic programming concepts. Students will experience hands-on programming by building video games in an object-oriented game engine while learning computer programming in a fun and engaging manner. Previous programming or game design knowledge is not required. Written by a veteran teacher of video game design curriculum, Video Game Design and Programming Concepts introduces the relevance of computer science in today’s environment. Students learn the basics of programming concepts while creating video games and integrating cross-curricular, STEM-based skill sets. The fun and easy-to-use text-software design guide teaches coding and programming of video games by applying pseudo code. Pseudo code helps students understand and learn programming logic for future study of computer languages. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) form the foundation on which society in the 21st century builds and maintains economic growth. This curriculum integrates the rigor and relevance of STEM while preparing students for college and career.
