An engagedstudent is more likely to have short-term goals such as an intention to participate in an internshipprogram or long-term goals such as intentions to pursue graduate studies or move into the technicalworkforce. Tutoring sessions, field trips, and research projects have been introduced to theundergraduate engineering student's curriculum ostensibly to increase engagement. Peerdiscussions in undergraduate courses have helped develop the personal and social skills to thrivein an engineering major. Peer discussions seem to enhance student learning compared with coursesthat do not allow peer discussions [2]. Capstone projects serve as a great

Toequip students with important design skills, design education has adopted project-based coursesthat require students to tackle open-ended problems [2].

However, with limited resources and time available to educators and teaching facilities, personalized support is often infeasible.

To further engage students, the system is built on top of an existing narrative game environment called Gridlock. Gridlock provides students with a narrative game experience that focuses on creating
