Skip visits Arundel High School to see what students are doing in computer science gaming & studying global communities through gaming classes.
A
A
Welcome
and
thanks
for
joining
us
for
on
course,
and
Anne
Arundel
County
Public
Schools
journey.
We
intend
to
take
you
on
a
fascinating
trip
throughout
the
county
to
feature
the
amazing
that
happens
in
each
and
every
day
in
all
of
our
classrooms.
Our
travels
will
explore
all
aspects
of
the
division
of
academic
and
strategic
initiatives
whose
focus
is
directed
solely
on
supporting
all
students
on
their
learning
journey.
A
A
B
A
B
A
B
Very
excited
about
that,
and
so
we
decided
to
take
a
tour
to
Pittsburgh
on
a
couple
schools
that
were
implementing
the
curriculum.
The
first
school
we
went
to
was
they
were
implementing
the
game
design
and
it
was
very,
very
interesting
about
how
they
were
looking
at
the
evolution
of
games
and
the
history
of
games
and
comparing
ancient
Egypt
games
and
different
cultures
to
today's
out
culture,
and
they
were
playing
games
and
making
comparison
to
present
day.
B
So
the
other
school
we
went
to,
they
were
actually
making
games
their
own
games
and
they
were
using
Dyess
multi,
faceted
dice.
They
were
making
boards
and
and
cards
and
avatars
and
so
forth,
and
they
were
testing
and
writing
directions.
And
then
they
were,
you
know
having
other
groups,
try
to
play
their
games
and
trying
to
perfect
the
games
and
every
student
in
there
and
there
was
engaged-
and
we
were
very
excited
to
see
that
we
were
talking
to
a
couple
boys
in
this
one
group.
B
Girls
too,
that
we're
working
on
a
game
and
I
said
that
would
be
a
perfect
game
for
an
app
and
the
students
got
very
excited.
So
they
even
stayed
after
the
bell
talking
about
the
teacher
had
to
write
him
past
again,
so
that
made
us
very
excited.
So
we
decided
this
is
something
we
needed
to
bring
back
to
Anne
Arundel
public.
A
B
I
mean
when
you
and
I
were
little.
We
played
games
all
the
time
board
games
today.
There
are
video
games,
there's
not
a
lot
of
board
game
playing,
so
the
problem-solving
and
the
strategic
thinking
and
the
consequences
of.
If
you
make
this
move,
you
know
it's
better
to
make
this.
The
next
steps
we're
we're
kind
of
missing,
and
we
saw
that
as
we
were
going
around
and
touring
the
classrooms
that
those
things
were
being
developed
and
that
was
very
exciting.
So.
B
A
Head
on
out
to
Arundel
high
school
to
see
exactly
what's
happening
there
in
their
classrooms,
so
we're
out
here
at
a
Rundle
high
school
want
to
welcome
everybody.
This
is
Steven
Tibbs,
one
of
the
teachers
here
and
we're
in
a
computer
science
gaming
classroom,
as
we
talked
earlier
with
Stephanie.
This
is
kind
of
the
next
step
on,
while
we're
students
in
this
program
are
going
so
Steve
thanks
for
joining
us.
Thank
you
for
coming.
Tell
us
a
little
bit
about
this
class
like
what
what
what's
the
background
and
how
it
actually
came.
A
C
Was
pitched
last
year
and
last
year
I
was
teaching
web
design
classes
and
other
computer
science
classes,
and
our
administration
is
very
supportive
of
computer
science
and
they
pitched
this
class
to
me
and
I
said:
I
would
love
to
take
the
opportunity
to
do
this.
It
casts
a
really
wide
net
to
bring
in
more
students
to
computer
science.
Okay
in
general,
we
just
want
to
offer
it
to
as
many
students
as
possible
because
careers
are
requiring
computer
science
these
days,
it's
not
an
option
anymore,
so
we're
thrilled
to
have
it
so.
A
C
Are
enticing
students
to
get
into
computer
science
through
this
gaming
element,
which
is
the
exciting
part?
Our
students
are
gaming.
They
love
gaming
and
students,
have
the
opportunity,
in
this
class
to
get
the
fundamentals
or
the
basics
of
building
a
computer
science
or
building
a
game
rather
we're
using
a
programming
language,
language
called
JavaScript,
which
is
the
most
popular
language
in
the
tech
field.
Right
now,
so
our
students
are
working
on
JavaScript
animations
is
where
we
are
right
now
with
the
students
so.
A
C
Is
very
true?
Yes,
so
we
are
looking
for
them
to
take
this
skill
and
they're
really
they're
applying
their
their
math
knowledge
through
the
school.
So
it's
it's
an
application.
It's
they're,
taking
what
they've
learned
from
around
the
other
subjects
and
they're
they're
bringing
it
to
life
here.
So
that's
the
most
exciting
standpoint
for
me
is
I,
get
to
see
them
apply
the
knowledge
they've
been
acquiring
and
then
build
upon
that
so
I'm.
A
kid.
A
C
Oh
no,
they
can
come
in
from
anywhere
the
class
design
for
a
student
who
has
really
no
computer
knowledge
there
as
long
as
they
can
come
in
and
use
a
keyboard
and
a
mouse
they're
ready
for
this
class.
So
we
started
the
very
basics
and
it's
not
just
a
programming
class.
We
also
have
elements
of
computer
science
all
throughout
the
class,
so
it
is
a
general
computer
science
class
with
many
units
in
gaming
involved.
So.
A
I
was
talking
to
Miss
Davenport
your
principal
about
this,
and
so
her
kind
of
philosophy
was
she
wanted
rigor?
She
wanted
kids
to
really
be
challenged.
She
wanted
problem
solving
and
this
whole
piece
of
the
being
able
to
use
what
you
learn.
Application
piece
tell
us
it
really
how
this
class
supports
those
those.
C
C
C
So
I've
seen
a
cyber
very
since
the
class
is
new.
I
have
a
rather
varied
student
body
in
the
skin.
This
course
specifically,
so
I
had
everyone
from
you
know:
early
high
school
students
to
up
to
seniors,
and
so
I
have
a
wide
array
and
what
I've
seen
is
I.
Think
a
lot
of
students
are
grasping
number
one.
That
program
a
game
is
maybe
more
difficult
than
they
thought.
So
it's
not
as
simple.
Maybe
they
came
in
they
play
on
these
counselors.
You
were
referring
to
and
I
want
to
build.
C
The
next
Call
of
Duty,
for
example,
and
I,
think
they're,
realizing
that
there's
a
lot
of
work
that
goes
into
that,
and
so
that
is
what
I'm,
seeing
first
of
all
and
second
of
all,
I'm
seeing
their
their
math
be
applied.
So
for
me
it's
that's.
The
most
rewarding
part
is
being
able
to
work
with
them
and
applying
these
skills
and.
A
C
Have
absolutely
been
devouring
myself
just
programming
in
general,
I
love,
the
computer
science
world
I
came
up
to
this
opportunity
was
announced,
I
was
teaching
web
design
courses,
so
I
had
in
another
computer
science
class
as
well.
I
teach
in
AP
computer
science
principles
too,
so
I
just
loved.
The
idea
of
growing
with
my
students
and
developing
these.
These
JavaScript
based
games
sounds.
A
D
Originally
I
was
in
a
different
class
and
I
just
wanted
to
get
out
of
it
and
because
it
was
during
third
period,
there
was
virtually
no
other
options
and
then
me
and
my
counselor
saw
this
class
and
had
virtually
no
idea
what
it
was.
So
I
came
up
here
and
asked
mr.
Ted
what
it
was
and
then
I
decided
to
take
and
has.
A
D
Current
unit
more
on
is
images
and
animations
we're
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
make
a
object
appear
on
the
screen
and
make
it
do
things,
and
one
of
the
earlier
things
we
did
is:
is
this
one?
This
has
to
do
with
randomizing
colors.
So
first,
we
I
just
created
a
beach
scene
just
so
we
had
something
to
work
off
of,
and
then
you
see
this
background
this.
D
A
Well
know,
I
could
definitely
tell
it's
moving,
it's
the
shapes
in
the
color
sequences.
So
what
I'm
again,
what
I'm
visualizing
on
your
screen
in
that
block
up
to
the
left
is
really
altered
by
the
code
that
you
steer
the
computer
to
respond
to
right.
Yes,
so
you
mentioned
you're
using
your
creativity.
How
do
you
see
what
you're
learning
in
this
class
in
any
any
part
moving
forward?
Well,.
D
I,
don't
I
just
think
it's
something
really
fun,
and
even
if
I
don't
go
into
like
you're
with
it,
I
feel
like
it
can
be
used
in
a
lot
of
things,
for
example,
like
art,
I'm,
just
gonna
show
an
example,
really
quick,
I
made
Batman
with
just
circles
and
squares,
and
just
with
code
and
I
thought
that
was
really
cool
and
then,
by
doing
that,
I
realized
that
you
can
apply
a
coating
to
anything.
You
can
make
it
to
art.
You
can.
D
A
You're
learning
the
backside
of
how
to
actually
make
those
sort
of
products.
That's
very,
very
cool
awesome!
Well,
thanks
for
spending
some
time
with
this
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
transition
over
to
one
of
your
other
classmates
and
learn
what
he's
up
to
thanks
for
your
time,
so
we're
here
with
Colin
depo,
one
of
the
other
students
in
the
class
of
many
and
Khan.
Thanks
for
joining
us
appreciate
you
doing
that.
Tell
us
a
little
bit
about
your
motivation
to
be
involved
in
this
class
and
in
this
line
of
coursework
here
at
this
school.
E
A
E
Now
I
made
like
I
kind
of
just
go
for
with
my
code
and
whenever
you
run
it,
it
will
randomize
the
colors
of
the
floor
and
the
lights
and
to
do
this.
I
had
rectangles
for
each
spot
on
the
floor.
Okay
and
I
made
it
with
random
colors
with
an
RGB
scale,
which
is
right,
green
blue
and
then
for
the
lights.
E
I
did
the
same
thing
with
random
colors,
but
I
use
lines
to
make
it
and
I
increased
the
stroke
with
air
stroke,
weight
210
which
made
it
fatter
and
then
for
the
disco,
ball,
I
kind
of
just
made
like
a
circle
and
had
that
be
placed
in
the
middle.
So
it
looks
like
it
was
an
actual
club
type
thing
can.
A
So
every
splash
is
getting
a
change
of
the
derivative,
the
line,
colors
and
then
very
cool.
Are
you
planning
to
like
put
little
flashes
in
the
background
I'm
just
kidding
so
so
this
class
is
a
kind
of
a
stepping
stone
and
we,
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
your
interest
in
in
filmmaking
in
that.
Where
do
you
think
this
give
me
some
ideas
of
what
you
think
this
class
could
evolve
into
I?
Think.
E
A
A
A
So
mr.
Feeny,
thank
you
so
much
for
letting
us
come
into
your
your
classroom
here
to
run
the
high
school
and
my
goodness,
there's
so
much
going
on
behind
us
and
in
front
of
us
I'm
not
really
sure
what
to
start.
So
when
we
just
start
with.
You
sure
tell
me
a
little
bit
about
the
class
about
your
involvement
in
the
class
and
the
evolution
of
the
class.
G
Our
principal
Miss
Davenport
in
an
effort
to
find
classes
and
curriculum
that
is
not
only
academic,
but
that
is
engaging
came
upon.
A
gaming
curriculum,
I
I'd
like
to
think
I
was
the
first
person
she
came
to.
You
know
top
five.
She
said
mr.
Matheny,
would
you
be
interested
you
know
and
coming
on
this
adventure?
This
journey
teaching
teaching
this
class
exploring
global
communities
through
gaming,
which
is
based
off
of
the
evolution
of
gaming
Xue
Lama
company
called
su
Lama
curriculum.
It's.
A
G
A
G
G
This
is
a
replica
copy.
We
study
the
culture
right,
we
break
it
down
like
a
history
class.
When
we
look
at
documents,
we
look
at
the
social
and
political
aspects
of
that
culture
and
then
we
we
play
the
game.
We
make
the
game
and
then
we
play
the
game,
and
then
we
reflect
back
on
that
game
very
cool,
so
so
we're
like
Howard
Hughes
without.
G
G
A
G
We
continuously
go
through
the
historical
games,
the
more
contemporary
games
we
work
in
when
we
break
down
either
theme
or
mechanics.
Usually,
when
we
talk
about
a
game
we're
talking
about
what
that
game
is
about,
that's
the
story
behind
that
game,
the
theme
or
the
actual
mechanics
of
how
it's
played.
So
if
you
took
life
for
an
example,
it's
a
role
to
move
game,
you
roll,
you
move,
you
do
what
the
board
says.
Her
is
more
of
an
abstract
race
game,
but
you
have
games
that
are
more
strategic.
G
A
Love
it
so
we're
here
as
a
stepping-stone
to
talk
about
some
computer-generated
games,
but
really
those
come
from
imagination
and
the
standing
principles
behind
what
gaming
is.
So,
where
do
you
see
the
evolution
of
games?
This
this
course
curriculum
supporting
that
computer
development
of
gaming.
Sure.
G
Well,
the
the
curriculum
from
which
this
class
was
developed.
They
they
envisioned
multiple
branches.
The
one
that
Arundel
high
school
has
embraced
is
is
the
actual
programming,
the
construction
of
computer
games.
So
we
are
creating
classes,
we
are
Miss,
Davenport
is
offering
and
creating
classes
and
finding
teachers
that
are
enthusiastic
about
teaching
those
classes
that
teach
students
how
to
code
with
an
emphasis
on
creating
games
and.
G
A
What
do
you
say
we
go
ahead
and
take
a
look
at
seeing
what
some
of
the
kids
are
up
there.
So
Maria
thanks
for
joining
me.
I,
really
appreciate
you
taking
time
out
from
your
from
your
classic,
give
us
a
little
bit
of
information
from
a
student's
perspective
on
what
this
evolution
of
gaming
or
the
study
of
cultures
and
communities
through
a
gaming
lens
might
look
like
once
you
tell
me
a
little
bit
about
what
you
guys
were
doing
today.
H
So
today
we're
playing
her.
It
is
like
one
of
the
first
reported
games
in
history
from
one
of
the
early
societies
in
the
world.
They
were
developed
enough
to
have
enough
free
time
to
have
a
game
to
entertain
themselves.
So
it's
a
racing
game
and
pretty
much
with
the
dice.
You
can
roll
it
and
it
tells
you
what
kind
of
moves
you
can
make.
It's.
D
H
A
There's
rules
that
come
along
with
it
and
we've
gathered
that
information
over
the
study
of
time
and
in
particular
culture.
So
this
evolution
of
gaming
is
just
not
just
about
the
game.
It's
about
studying,
what's
happening
at
the
time
that
the
games
were
introduced.
Tell
me
help
like,
let's
fast
forward,
to
2017.
What
would
what
would
inspire
you
or
motivate
you
to
take
a
class
like
this?
What
do
you
hope
to
learn?
I.
H
D
H
A
You're
you're
using
the
experiences
in
this
class
in
the
study
of
cultures,
to
help
you
in
terms
of
preparation
for
your
own
game
design,
that's
pretty
cool
and
that's
what
you
want
to
do
as
a
contributing
member
of
society.
Tell
me
some
of
the
background
like
what
have
you
done
up
to
this
point,
not
about
this
class,
but
just
as
a
as
a
student
last.
H
Year
I
took
AP
Computer
Science
principles,
which
is
also
a
new
computer
science
course,
and
in
that
class,
for
a
part
of
our
AP
assessment,
we
were
able
to
make
our
own
app
and
I
thought
that
was
really
cool.
So
I
made
my
own
game
and
I
really
enjoyed
it
and
I
thought.
