STEAM K-12, an organization focused on coding and game design classes for K-12 Learners and professional learning opportunities for K-12 Educators. In our classes, kids learn to code, design video games and build software. Our learners have fun while learning the critical skills of tomorrow. We strive for the highest quality instruction. All of our teachers are either credentialed K-12 educators and/or have a background in Computer Science/Software Engineering/Tech.
UNREAL ENGINE RECOMMENDED REQUIREMENTS - Desktop PC or Mac. Windows 7 64-bit or Mac OS X 10.9. 2 or later. Quad-core Intel or AMD processor, 2.5 GHz or faster. NVIDIA GeForce 470 GTX or AMD Radeon 6870 HD series card or higher. 8 GB RAM. (16GB STRONGLY RECOMMENDED) NO WINDOWS 7, CHROMEBOOKS (they are not compatible) !!!!!!!! Pre-2016 MacBooks with under 16GB of RAM will have a very difficult time running. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS To install Unity, it is a two step process. PART 1 First you must download Epic Games Launcher (https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/). Once it is downloaded, open the Epic Games Launcher to Install. PART 2 Once you’ve installed the Epic Games Launcher, open the program and go to the “UE4 Section” tab on the top left side. Then click the yellow “Install Unreal Engine” button on the right. Once this step is finished, Unreal Engine will be installed. If you have any issues with this please let us know. A lot of this will be reviewed in the first class, to ensure that all students’ Unreal Engine’s are properly installed and functional for the rest of the class. Please be aware that Unreal Engine is a professional software suite (that's great for kids!) but it does require a strong computer. The more RAM (16GB MINIMUM) and the faster the hard drive (SSD's) the better it'll perform and the happier our learners will be!
