Did you know that you can use game design to teach computer science principles? In fact, you can do more than that! Find out how you can bring real-time 3D (RT3D) education to your classroom with the Unity EdLab cloud-based development platform.

Unity is the world’s leading video game engine but it does so much more than that. Unity believes that the more creators there are in the world, the better. Why? Because creators are changemakers and Unity is the platform they are using to make an impact. They’ve worked hard to develop tools and communities to propel real-time 3D learning.

You as an educator will play a key role in their mission to make RT3D learning accessible to all students and prepare students to excel in careers in game development. Bonus: You do not have to already know Unity or real-time 3D in order to teach it with confidence! More details below.

Why Choose Unity EdLab?

Before I list the reasons, here is what Sean Wybrand, the 2017 Teacher of the Year in Colorado had to say:

“Unity has inspired kids I know around the world, opened opportunities for them to get internships at Lockheed Martin and the Smithsonian Digitization Office, and allowed them to build alternative futures for themselves. Students should have the change to build the world they want to inherit, and Unity makes that possible.”

Here are the key features you can expect:

• 100% Cloud-based + Minimal Hardware Requirements: No installation required. Increased accessibility to students who can work on something as simple as a Chromebook.
