Basics of Game Design / Next Level Tech
Lesson 9

In this lesson, youth apply the final step to the design process by testing out their prototype and sharing it with their peers for feedback. The Test & Submit handouts and self-guided video of the lesson are provided. 

To prepare for the lesson:

  1. Print out the Activity & Submit your project pages from the Test & Submit presentation for the groups.
  2. Set up the self-guided interactive Test & Submit Project on your class computer. Review it before the lesson. You can also reference the Facilitator Guide: Test & Submit Project for visual screenshots. Make sure you have sound and internet access set up for the computer. It’s recommended to have the site projected on a large screen so youth can follow along together.
  3. A laptop or tablet per small group.
  4. MakeCode or MakeCode Arcade sites available for groups.
  5. Micro:bit kits as needed for groups.
  6. MakeCode Project Rubric for everyone.
  7. Pencils for everyone.

During the lesson:

  1. Follow the instructions on the Test & Submit Project Interactive. As you click through the steps on the interactive lesson, you’ll notice that there is an audio recording of the written descriptions for each section of the lesson. Play the audio so youth have a choice between listening to the words or reading the words on the screen.
  2. Have youth answer the quizzes that come up throughout the lesson together. 
  3. Distribute the Test & Submit presentation handout for youth to reference alongside the project rubric.
  4. Choose to either do a Gallery Walk or have youth share out with the class. Encourage youth to do the scoring using the project rubric.
