Content

In Futureproof, students will focus on what it means to be a creator of new technologies, asking themselves who they are and who they wish to become. Who are games for? What kind of people make them? They will learn the necessary skills in writing, presenting, and student behaviour to form a baseline of communication, orienting them on what is expected of a CMGT student.

The student will write an individual text where they reflect on their own future role in the game industry. What and who inspired them to choose a career in the game industry? How do they see their future?

The student will also work with others in their project group to give a presentation and will reach out to someone in the industry to help inform them. They will then work together to create an engaging and informative presentation.
