SUMMARY:Building Equitable and Sustainable Game Development Education
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:With recent waves of layoffs\, high-profile workplace harassmen
 t cases\,\nand a notoriously short career length for gender minorities and
  people\nof colour\, the transition of new workers into the game industry\
 ninvolves navigating a spate of barriers to equity and success that\nhave 
 been understudied in academic research. The First Three Years is\nan ongoi
 ng longitudinal study of graduates of game programs in Canada\nand the Uni
 ted States\, following the journey of 207 students as they\nmove into the 
 game industry. In this workshop\, our research team will\nsummarise the pr
 imary challenges students have identified in their\ngame programs. This su
 mmary includes equity and diversity issues\ninherent in common curricular 
 practices such as the efficacy of\ncapstone courses and internships\, the 
 inclusion of crunch-like\npractices in the classroom\, the systematic fail
 ure to inform students\nof actual workplace conditions\, and the mismatch 
 between student\npreparation and industry hiring practices. Afterwards\, p
 articipants\nwill address whether/how these problems manifest in their own
 \ninstitutions\, and what solutions might improve equity outcomes for\nstu
 dents seeking careers in games.\n\nThis event is part of the “ADE for Ga
 me Communities: Enculturing\nAnti-Racism\, Decolonization\, Equity\, Diver
 sity and Inclusion (ADE) in\nGames Research and Creation” series from th
 e ADE Committee of the\nGames Institute\, University of Waterloo\, and is 
 supported in part by\nfunding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Rese
 arch Council.
