Can Creating Computer Games Develop Reading and Writing Skills? Digital Tools Teaching Strategies Flickr: Microsoft Sweden By Sara Bernard What should we teach kids about computers in 2011? Most already know how to use them. “The most interesting thing we can teach kids about computers is how to program them,” says Matthew MacLaurin, UX Director of Microsoft FUSE Labs and one of the originators of Kodu, a free, downloadable software that gets kids and teachers across the globe designing their own computer games.

(Well, almost free: the XBox version costs four dollars.) But Kodu is not just about 0′s and 1′s and dense blocks of HTML. The good news for teachers is that Kodu can be matched to academic standards. Plus, MacLaurin says, game creation tends to be something that kids are eager to do in or out of school. Q: Why is game design important for learning? A: One of my favorite results that we’ve discovered so far is based on a study that just came out by a local educator in a PhD program at the University of Washington. A: Mostly word of mouth.

Development is undertaken by a game developer, which may range from a single person to a large business. Traditional commercial PC and console games are normally funded by a publisher and take several years to develop.

Indie games can take less time and can be produced cheaply by individuals and small developers. The indie game industry has seen a rise in recent years with the growth of new online distribution systems and the mobile game market. The first video games were developed in the 1960s, but required mainframe computers and were not available to the general public. Mainstream PC and console games are generally developed in phases. Mobile games are, in general, much quicker to develop than the mainstream PC and console games. Overview[edit] Game development is the software development process by which a video game is produced. All but the smallest developer companies work on several titles at once.
