[game_edu] Unity Workshop Curriculum?

[Bill Crosbie]

Beth,

I don't have a direct curriculum to teach Unity, but Unity is the
environment for my advanced game design students. The students use the
training modules at design3.com, which are quite extensive, to learn the
technology. This frees up class time for discussion of game design concepts,
programming in C# and JavaScript vis-a-vis the Unity object model, directed
lab work and project critiques. This is my first semester using this method,
so I can't tell you how successful or problematic it will be.

Noesis Interactive is a Unity partner. They were able to help us with both
Unity Pro licensing and in discounted rates on the video training.

Bill

It is humbling almost to the point of despair to discover that 15 dozen
screenfuls of ponderous commentary produced by a small liberal-arts faculty
worth of beardy gamer geeks can, with almost zero loss of insight, be
reduced to the three panels of a Penny Arcade cartoon.
~ Julian Dibbell quoted in Wired (September 2007)
