As an art teacher I try to show something like making a modle or a texture then show the students how/where the art fints into the game's assets (file system), finally it is important to explain how to load them via the mission/terrian/gui editors. Break it into smaller steps.

I'm teaching Torque for the first time this fall. I'm interested on hearing examples from the programing side of things.

(yes, this is a deliberate thread bump.)

I taught it in one of my Masters level computer programming courses. I went through some high-level slides on game design and using torque which are still available at www.crossler.com or on Slideshare (tag: Torque or Game Design).

I'm possibly teaching it again this upcoming semester to undergrads, and would love any good slides people have to share.
