Overview

Presented here is a sample lesson that I crafted for a Minecraft Video Game Development course, tailored to underprivileged youths aged 9-13. This lesson not only imparts fundamental video game development skills but also showcases tangible real-world applications of STEM knowledge. Designed with the preteen and early teen audience in mind, I adopted a friendly, conversational tone that's both lively and engaging. To keep the interest levels high, I sprinkled in pop culture references and playful jokes.
