Game Based Learning in the T4E Classroom

Game Based Learning describes an approach to teaching, where students explore relevant aspect of games in a learning context designed by teachers. Teachers and students collaborate in order to add depth and perspective to the experience of playing the game. Well developed game-based learning applications can draw us into virtual environments that look and feel familiar and relevant.

Within my classroom, I utilize video games to incorporate this element. In essence, I play various video games, contact the creators/publishers (to get approval), and create my "out there" ideas to encourage and motivate my students to highest levels of thinking.

Below I've shared some of my creations along with a short "demo" version to play with. If it's something you think your students would be interested in, feel free to check out my teaching store!
