Clickteam Tools & Education

Keeping students engaged in class can be problematic. Even more so in todays technology driven world, where most children have access to a computer, console, handheld device or mobile phone.

Creating games is fun, engaging and above all its educational. Get your students to make games, and then get them to play their own creations. The students can even export their game creations and put them onto a USB drive or CDROM to take home or upload them to a school website.

Gaming is relevant to a childs daily life, be it playing games on a phone or accessing a game online through a web browser. With the ease of use of our products, you can get students up and running in no time.

If your students are older, you may also be interested in using our products to teach them an introduction to storyboarding, prototyping and game design as well as giving them an introduction to programming.

Games and games creation has now been recognised as an important career choice for many students (it's a billion dollar industry) and as an important learning tool that covers many subject matters: -

  • A stepping stone to learning more complicated programming languages like C++ or C#.
  • Teach graphic, art and design skills, learning concepts like animation, transparency and Alpha channels.
  • Teach mathematics in an interesting and fun way.
  • Every game needs a story, teach the art of storytelling and storyboarding.

Some benefits of using one of Clickteam's range of products and using game creation as a route to successful education:

  • Multimedia and application development without all the time restrictions and hassle. Now you can teach development techniques quickly and easily, removing the "Long Development Times" and "No Visable Results" issues that make game and multimedia courses boring. This is very important when lesson times are short
  • Drag and drop development (TGF, MMF), no previous programming knowledge required.
  • Inclues a range of royalty-free graphics, animations, sounds and music. Get creating straight out of the box!
  • Our products work with a wide range of Operating systems, and hardware specifications. Windows 95, 98, ME, Windows 2000 and XP.

Perhaps you are running a games development class, after school/lunch time club, summer camp or as an aid to other lessons like English, Maths or Art. Then Clickteam's game creation programs are the products for you!

Dont just play games, Make them!
