5315: Measurement Strategy & Connecting and Communicating Your Ideas

Exploring the Impact of Collaborative Game Design Projects on Student Engagement and Problem-Solving Skills

Throughout 5315, I embarked on an exciting journey to explore how collaborative game design projects can enhance student engagement and problem-solving skills in my game design curriculum. This course allowed me to dive deep into the world of action research and develop a comprehensive plan to investigate this innovative teaching approach.

Key Milestones:

1.  Action Research Outline : I began by crafting a detailed outline of my research focus, clearly defining my purpose and research question. This foundation helped shape the direction of my study and ensured a clear path forward.
