process used to develop computer games in the industry.


School design teams


pitched their ideas in a dragon’s den style environment and the winning idea was made into a 30 second game, coded by the pupils and students and premiered at an event at Cardiff School of Management recently. New Primary Studies Lecturer, Nick Young said: “This exciting showcase event was a great opportunity for our students and the pupils


CARDIFF MET recently hosted an event


to


premiere a computer racing game designed by South Wales pupils with the assistance of Cardiff Met students and staff. The event showcased the culmination of work produced by pupils during the Overdrive PLC Multi


School Project.


This collaborative project sought to improve primary pupils’ digital competency, inspired by a new digitally focused framework for schools


that was introduced by the Welsh Government as part of a national curriculum review last year. Cardiff School of Art and Design, Cardiff School of Education, Cardiff School of Management, Caerphilly and Newport Council and Deighton primary school in the Ebbw Vale area worked together on the project. Primary Education students, Animation students and Computer Games Design staff have


delivered the project since the start of the year through a series of student-led


sessions


at the primary school. Pupils also visited the


University’s Llandaff and Cyncoed campuses to learn the new skills they needed to develop the computer game and take part in a real life design
