During the weekly webinar hosted by WG5, scheduled for Friday, April 04, 2025, from 18:00 CET, Mike Cosgrave will present a talk titled:

Game Design as assessment tool

Abstract: A game is a model of a system or situation; and on that basis I have used analogue game design as an assessment tool in History, International Relations and Digital Humanities since 2008. In this webinar I outline this perspective, explain why it is a useful assessment tool and step through the process which I work through in my classes. I will also look at how the elements of a game design assessment can align with learning outcomes and the Teaching for Understanding framework.
