SUMMARY:Engaging Students in Parallel and Distributed Computing Learning b
 y Games Design Using Unity
DESCRIPTION:Fei Cao and Dabin Ding (University of Central Missouri) and Mi
 chelle Zhu (Montclair State University)\n\nParallel and distributed comput
 ing (PDC) is increasingly important in science and engineering discipline,
  yet many computer science curriculum especially in the early college year
 s either do not provide students with adequate PDC components, or there ar
 e pedagogical challenges for students to learn PDC concepts. Meanwhile, ed
 ucational games has become an important teaching tool in a wide variety of
  disciplines. We plan to integrate more PDC concepts in our game design co
 urses. Our experiences indicates that (1) students tirelessly strive to un
 derstand the PDC concepts in order to design game challenges, and (2) the 
 virtual reality immersion experience is enormously engaging and fun.\n\nTa
