questions we face:

EACH GROUP SHOULD HAVE AN:

●Educator●Game developer●Parent●Researcher●SUPERHERO●STUDENT

how might WE design a fun, engaging learning experience based upon

the constraints you have WITH THE GAME

YOU CHOSE?

questions:● Name of the game● Pick any type of game to adapt● Description of the game● What will the students learn?● What are the obstacles to using this

game based on the constraints you have?

● What solutions did your group come up with?

● How did you keep the game fun?● What did you learn by going through

this process?

reflections + wisdom

1. $6,000 funds a pilot of a game in three classrooms, including a writeup?

2. $20,000 funds a game-a-thon in a community

3. $7,500 funds an online searchable database of research on GBL
