Project Design Tips
1. Refer to class as "Game Design" or "Animation"
- STEM or just coding sounds boring for students who don't know what it is
Project Design Tips
2. Run demos to get student buy-in
- Get students who may be interested all together in one room or auditorium and show them what sort of projects they can create.
Project Design Tips
3. Allow for student autonomy
