Game Design
UEFN Game Jam
Join a fast-paced, collaborative game jam to build a complete game experience in Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN). Test your skills, learn new techniques, and bring a creative theme to life against the clock.
Transform how students demonstrate their knowledge with the UEFN Virtual Exhibit. This professional development session is an educator's guide to facilitating a powerful project-based learning experience. We will explore a versatile template that allows students to build, curate, and publish their own interactive 3D museum or showcase on any subject, from history and science to literature and art. You will learn the complete student workflow, including getting started with the project, importing 3D models from Fab, creating custom signage, adding images, and integrating audio players. This is the ultimate tool for creating engaging, immersive projects that build future-ready skills.
