The Torque 3D 1.2 Education Materials were originally released in November 2011 with the goal of assisting educators and workshop teachers with teaching from the Torque 3D FPS Tutorial At the time, we promised to release a Teacher’s Guide to make developing the curriculum and teaching the course materials easier. It is now included in the download located here:All these educational materials are free to use, modify and freely distribute. Attribution is appreciated but not required.For those who missed the first release, here is a summary description of what is included:The goal of this project was to take the Torque 3D 1.2 Tutorial and integrate it into a 13 class, 52 hour curriculum to help teachers and educators have examples for a wide variety of introductory game development classes. These classes may include programming, level scripting, game design, art, portfolio, introduction to game development, and computer lab classes at both the high school and college levels. With the wide variety of class types, teaching rubrics, and student aptitude, we expect most of the users of these materials to take what works for their class/workshop and modify or add what they need to complete the education materials for their specific class needs.The Torque 3D 1.2 Education Materials download includes:We also added Janet Fisher to the writing team. Some of you may remember she was the lead writer of the original Torque 3D 1.2 FPS Tutorial. Many thanks to Janet and all the teachers, students, Education Associates and Torque testers who helped with this update.
