Notas del editor
- Mastery approach, they can replay for better outcomes, not graded on final score, but up to instructor.
- Each game is related to a specific theory, which is already part of the teachers college curriculum and standards, and we embed these experiences within their relevant coursework. Brought in content area experts for each of the games
- What’s exciting about these gaming technologies is that they can create nuanced scenarios, where you are the protagonist with multiple trajectories through the game. Our students love this it’s a great way to engage them.
- Badges aren’t just token rewards, but they unlock new learning opportunities, because you’ve demonstrated your expertise. Give props to others, similar to endorsements in LinkedIn, to highlight that someone is doing really great work. Incredibly motivational.
