GameCamp!™ is a summer program for middle and high school students that are interested in learning more about gaming. The camp uses computer and video game design activities to motivate students to learn 21st century skills. Students learn to problem solve, work in groups, design software, and understand the economic and management issues associated with game development. The most powerful part of the GameCamp!™ model is the ability to draw students back into the academic fold by harnessing their passion for video games and giving them a relevant context for understanding concepts across different educational fields.
