Annotation
This article addresses the issue of low motivation among college students studying IT disciplines. A concept for teaching 3D modeling and programming through
the development of a team-based game project is proposed, aimed at improving the effectiveness of the educational process. The scientific novelty, relevance, and practical value of this approach are substantiated.
Methodology and research. The study utilized an analysis of scientific and methodological literature, a summary of teaching experience, observation, interviews, object-oriented design and programming methods, and a pedagogical experiment.
Key findings. A concept for integrated teaching of 3D modeling and programming within the context of game project development was developed and presented; student motivation issues were identified and systematized; and methodological conditions for implementing the proposed approach were defined.
Scientific novelty. A teaching concept was developed that integrates the acquisition of 3D modeling skills in Blender and programming in Unreal Engine during the collaborative development of a game project. Practical significance. The results of this study can be used to develop training courses and methodological recommendations for teaching programming and 3D modeling to college students, as well as integrating into the continuing education programs of IT-focused clubs.
