Power Up Your Learning Episode 3: Level 3 On Your Mark: Structure, Design, and Purpose

SPS Digital Learning Hour

In this podcast episode we dive into level 3 of Power Up Your Learning. Throughout this episode we will look at how the authors explain how game-based learning (GBL) requires a clear structure, design and purpose to be effective and engaging. I also dive into some examples of what GBL can look like in the classroom, but I spend a majority of time on one model in particular, Breakout EDU.
