Do substitute teachers have favorites students? Do other students know who they are? Also, let's discuss some new tools for the classroom.

Unity has officially launched a pair of new classroom tools called Create with Code and Unity Teach to help teach game design and computer science. Create with Code is a comprehensive course aimed at educators who want to teach computer science using Unity, while Unity Teach is being pitched as a community-focused support network for teachers looking to connect and learn from each other.
