Rochester Institute of Technology and AT&T teamed up to host a digital game development program that addresses equality issues in technology education and helps local students impacted by the digital divide.

The AT&T ROC Jr Game Dev Camp Powered by RIT gave 40 underrepresented students in grades 4 through 6 from across the Rochester region an opportunity to gain critical digital literacy skills. Students developed their own functional digital video games with the overarching theme of using technology for social good. Throughout the day, professors and students from RIT’s School of Interactive Games and Media helped participants learn the basic technology and digital skills needed to create digital games. Additionally, active game makers were there to talk about what it’s like to have a career in game design and development.

At the end of camp this year, participants received a free Chromebook to allow them the opportunity to continue their exploration of the computing field.
