Game Based Learning (GBL) Faculty Interest Group (FIG) – Notes from Meeting Two

Monday October 30^th, 2023, at 12PM

Grace Axler-DiPerte, Facilitator

Location: KCTL Conference Room

Participants: Grace Axler-DiPerte (KCC BIO), Carrie Jedlicka (KCC LIB), Mark Eaton (KCC LIB), and Mary Ortiz (KCC BIO)

We had an in-person meeting to demonstrate and discuss faculty generated games.  We had time to demonstrate two games as follows:

1. Mary demonstrated her card game that explored the criteria for the binomial distribution. We played a round and then discussed possible modifications that could extend the game, such as treating it like “Poker” or “Go Fish”.
2. Mark and Carrie demonstrated their augmented reality tour of the KCC Library. We then discussed “false positives” and how they could be resolved, as well as other applications for library lessons through a scavenger hunt mechanic.

Our final meeting of the semester will be online via Zoom in mid- or late November.  Please email Grace for details.  We will demonstrate the games we did not get to during this session, as well as recap these games in more detail.
