Uclan Games Design Course in collaboration with the BBC and Alan O'Donohoe, Leader of Computing; IT, Our Lady's High School.
On Monday 5th March, 8 of our games design students went to the Hack To The Future event,
with 80 year 8 pupils (aged 12/13years old) hosted by the BBC at Media City, Salford. The aim was to provide an opportunity for children to engage with digital creators of today, and raise an awareness of the potential that computing science offers to children.
We took part in a session called 'I'm a Game Designer,' in BBC Quay House, main screening area.
