      ab: The article focuses on the use of computer games to encourage middle school students to participate in computer science programs. It talks about the Scalable Game Design framework utilizing systemic integration of a game-design-based computational thinking (CT) curriculum. It states that it exposed middle school students to CT concepts, motivated students to create complete games, allowed the objective measurement of CT learning objectives, and investigated pedagogical approaches and motivation.
