Students and adults across the world are engaged in playing all types of games. What if we could harness that enthusiasm for games as an instructional strategy?

In this recorded webinar, you will learn everything you need to know to implement a math game design unit in your classroom, including:

How to support the development of skills such as critical thinking, creativity and collaboration

How engineering design principles can be used to guide the design process

Stories and strategies from other educators who have used this unit in their classrooms

Printable guides and resources to facilitate the entire unit

Students get excited about the opportunity to take what they've learned and put it into a game that can be enjoyed by other people. Implemented in this way, game design can deepen students' understanding of math concepts as well as provide a unique way to assess their learning!
