The purpose of this session is to introduce a new style of digital breakout games to teachers and digital learning coaches. The session will start with a brief introduction to the style and why it might be better than previous iterations - based on technology concerns, curriculum integration, and best teaching practices. The middle part of the session will be a game demonstration, where attendees play a model game -- this part will be interactive so that attendees can experience the game as students might. Finally, the end of the session will focus on the nuts and bolts of how to set up a similar game with templates, tips & tricks, and other tools provided.
A version of the session can be found at http://tinyurl.com/ADKoDB and the model game can be found at bit.ly/EECHALLENGE.
Attendees will leave the session knowing the benefits of games in addressing student grit and problem-solving, understanding the experience of students playing the game, knowing how to set up a game of their own, and feeling confident that they can do so.
