[Year 12 IPM] GameMaker Questions

[Rod Kendall]

Hi Tony

We are using Gamemaker at year 10 - part of a programming course. We
teach VB along with this.

One semester - 4 lessons a fortnight.

It's a blast - kids love it - show them some of the examples off the
gamemaker site and they are in.

Hope all is well with you.

Cheers

Rod

G'day GameMaker aficionados.

A couple of quick questions:

   - At what year levels do you teach GameMaker?

   - For how long? eg one term (4 lessons per fortnight), etc....

   - And what other things are being taught in the same course at that
year
level? eg flash, web design, etc...

I'm seriously looking at introducing it next year.

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers,
TJ
