Game-Based Science Inquiry Learning and Assessment

• In Event: ELT - Game-Based Science Inquiry Learning and Assessment

Short Description

The K-12 Math and Science Partnership (MSP) project, a partnership between University of South Florida and three school districts, is developing a series of scenario-based science inquiry games (SB-SIG) with embedded assessment. The games are designed to provide three dimensional science learning that integrates core scientific ideas, cross discipline concepts, and scientific practices (NRC, 2013). Design features of four games in Earth, Life, and Physical sciences, the assessment framework, and design-based research findings will be presented.
