Youth Digital Arts CyberSchool

Wonderful comments from a Virginia Homeschool Mom!

  Greetings fellow educators at home!

My son, Ronald (age 13), has successfully completed the first two
courses of video game designing with Youth  Digital Arts and he
really loves it!  Your child (or even you!) could be designing new
games that teach or reinforce concepts that you want them to learn. 
My son plans to create a game based on our Latin classes for extra
review.  All subjects could be made into a video game using what you
learn in these courses along with the award winning software.
     I had hesitated to even explore getting this type of
instruction for my son because I thought that it would be cost
prohibitive….I was amazed to find it quite reasonable and less than
music classes (which Ronald was quite content to let his brothers
take!)  Another plus is that the choice of characters ranges from
benign to mildly "scary" and with almost a thousand to choose from
each family's comfort level can be honored.
     If you child has any interest in video game designing either
for education or just plain fun, they will benefit greatly from this
course!
