Based on “Caine’s Arcade”, widely cited as one of the most inspirational short films of the decade. This course invites students to design and build fun and engaging arcade games made from cardboard, recycled materials and imagination. The games are then shared with the school community - to help raise awareness and funds for a charity of their choice. Students will engage in a simple arcade design process that develops creativity, and along the way, they will learn physics, design thinking, math, financial literacy, engineering, social entrepreneurship and the value of recycling and social justice concepts.
