Description:
What does the lesson “Finding Citations,” the game “Trivial Pursuit,” and the mechanic “Bluffing” all have in common? In this bootcamp brainstorm, your team is given a mission: to improve an instructional plan with the mechanics of popular board games in only 20 minutes. Whether you need to teach the rules of citation or the rules of interviewing, there is usually a game plan that can help. If you’re an educator, workforce trainer, presenter, instructional designer, or even an actual game designer, you will learn how to integrate non-digital educational games or simulations into your classroom or workspace. This full-featured workshop has more games and theory than the free workshop and is kept at optimum size, which allows us to explore your instructional problems in much greater depth.
