This book is a guide to designing curricular games to suit the
needs of students. It makes connections between video games and
time-tested pedagogical techniques such as discovery learning and
feedback to improve student engagement and learning. It also
examines the social nature of gaming such as techniques for
driver/navigator partners, small groups, and whole class structures
to help make thinking visible; it expands the traditional design
process teachers engage in by encouraging use of video game design
techniques such as playtesting. The author emphasizes designing
curricular games for problem-solving and warns against designing
games that are simply "Alex Trebek (host of Jeopardy) wearing a
mask". By drawing on multiple fields such as systems thinking,
design theory, assessment, and curriculum design, this book relies
on theory to generate techniques for practice.
