By transformative, they mean it changes the waythe student views the discipline and knowledge of the subject. By irreversible, they mean oncethe student “sees” this new view, she/he will not revert to a more naïve perspective that she/hepreviously had. Finally, by integrative, they mean it allows the student to see connectionsbetween elements that were previously disjointed.Development of curriculum based on the identification of threshold concepts has recently beenenacted in engineering.3 However, in addressing threshold concepts, we must be mindful thatmany approaches to instruction do not

Perhaps the most prominent aspect of threshold concepts is their transformative nature.4 Onemanner of understanding the transformative criterion is to recall a concept that presented anentirely new lens to view the physical (and perhaps nonphysical) world.

In addition, the application needed to be accessible by as many studentsas possible, requiring the environment to support development for multiple platforms. Almost allmobile phones run either Android OS, or iOS. So, these were the platforms that the applicationsought to support. With these requirements in mind, it became evident that Unity [19], a popularcross-platform game engine, was an ideal environment to use to develop this application.
