Teams are given full freedom (empowered) to Page 26.507.7 6create/innovate and even to adopt any existing game to suit the project under study. This SCLhas been successfully implemented in more than one course in the MS SustainabilityManagement program. This particular SCL is perhaps one of the most advanced SCL used in thegraduate classes since real world problems need to be well understood to be able to bring theconcepts down to game objective(s), rules, and winning

The coursedirector utilized the textbook companion website by assigning questions associated with thereadings for each content lesson. The due dates for these assignments were consolidated intothree blocks aligned with the three major exams in the course, but organized by lesson, making itclear to which what reading assignment they were linked. Students had the option to eithercomplete the assignments as its associated lesson was taught, or wait until the end of the blockand complete all the assignments prior to the exam with the intent that these
