Using Google's CS First Game Design to Raise Awareness About SDGs

Samuel Landete

To improve my grade 6 students' coding skills and bring awareness to the SDGs, I guided them through the CS First Game Design course (https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/c/cs-first/en/game-design/overview.html) and then asked them to develop a game to bring awareness about an SDG of their choosing using the Design cycle. Attend this session to learn more about my process, and see that the SDGs can be used on any lesson within any content, ISTE's standards can be used to learn about the SDGs, and that teaching computational thinking using CS First can be done by any teacher in any subject.
