Students will use the Hopscotch or Tynker App (either on an iPad or web-based) to create their own video game.  This project is designed for grades 6-8 but could be adopted to other grades.  The project is intended for use after students complete the 20 hour course on introduction to coding on Code.org (https://studio.code.org/s/20-hour)

This resource is a collaborative assessment that takes about five 50-minute class periods (without the presentation time) that can be used after completing the Junior Achievement Economics for Success program. Outcome topics include goals, budgeting, credit, and insurance. Other prior knowledge includes how to create, format, and collaborate using a presentation app (Google Slides). Keep in mind that this project is used in a class that also teaches keyboarding, personal finance, and computer applications.  This is part of a unit assessment.
