Description

Many teens pass the hours away from school playing video games, but through the ITEST Digispired ii program, students will explore science and engineering principles behind game controllers while learning programming tools to help create their own video games.  Students will learn the concepts that make controllers, joysticks and dance pads work. The teens also will use computer programming language like C#, which will help them learn to use the game-developing software Unity.
