Charleston, you made this year’s IEI Fall Summit and Gala one to remember!✨

GameU’s SVP of Educational Partnerships, Gretchen Thompson, joined education leaders this week to exchange ideas, build relationships, and celebrate those making a difference in schools.

Huge thanks to the Institute for Education Innovation and everyone who made the event so memorable. From the summit to the gala, we’re grateful to be part of a community dedicated to expanding opportunities for students.🤝

🎮 Who gets to make games? More than just coders.

Artists shape the world. Writers develop the story. Designers create challenges. Programmers bring the pieces to life.

Game design gives students with different interests ways to contribute, explore new skills, and create something together.

🎮 Creative projects ask kids to do more than make something. They have to figure out where to start, keep track of what comes next, adjust when something doesn’t work, and bring an idea to completion.

🧠 Our latest blog explores 8 ways creative projects like game design, coding, and digital art can help kids practice executive function in a practical, engaging setting.

Students are surrounded by technology, but knowing how to use it isn’t the same as knowing how it works. 💻

When AI does too much of the work, students miss out on chances to make choices, revise their thinking, and learn through trial and error.

Our latest article looks at how hands-on digital creation helps K–12 students build problem-solving skills and work through the process instead of relying on AI prompts for the finished result.

📚 From an idea to a published novel!

We’re excited to celebrate GameU student Brian and the publication of his murder mystery novel, Drowning Springs! 🎉

Over the past two years, Brian worked alongside his GameU instructor, Courtney Stewart, developing his story and bringing his ideas from the page to a finished, published novel. It’s an incredible milestone and a great example of what can happen when creativity, dedication, and a lot of hard work come together.

Congratulations, Brian!

What does a good online coding class for teens actually look like? 🤔

Learning to code is one thing—but finding a class that keeps students interested, challenged, and supported can make all the difference.

A strong coding program should:

🎯 Adapt to the student— with instruction that can adjust to their pace, experience, and learning needs.

🎮Turn interests into projects — giving students opportunities to build games, apps, websites, and other projects they’re excited about.

🚀 Grow with their skills — whether they’re brand new to coding or ready to take on more advanced challenges.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to learning to code. Check out our latest blog to learn what to look for when choosing the right online coding class for your teen! 👇

Game design is more than creating something fun—it’s an opportunity to build skills that can extend far beyond the screen. 🎮💡

Through structured game design, students can explore:

💻 Computer Science — coding, logic, and problem-solving
🎨 Digital Media — art, animation, storytelling, and creative expression
⚙️ Engineering Design — planning, testing, troubleshooting, and iteration

At GameU, students turn their ideas into playable projects while developing valuable creative and technical skills along the way.
