(SEM608)The innovative approach here is to have the teams design games, create and play them(demonstrate) game that would demonstrate one or more of the sustainability 3 Es.This approach served and supported multiple purposes. The project needed to be practicalenough to demonstrate in a game. As the teams developed the projects from concept and movedtowards implementation, they also needed to think about what and how to design anddemonstrate the project objectives in their game. In other words, teams were not designing agame totally independent of the subject matter involved in their project. Their project needed tosupport the course learning objective(s) – so this becomes an integrated approach. The gamesapproach also bring in some ‘randomness

By contrast, the direct combustor runningwith 40 g of fuel achieved a maximum fuel consumption rate of 0.067 g/s, which occurred nearthe beginning of the process before the system had warmed up. For the direct combustor running30 g of fuel, the wood chips likely had higher moisture content and were too tightly packed tofully burn. So, the flame

Estimator was designed as an assessment instrument. However, one of thequestions addressed in the present research is whether noticeable learning occurs betweenproblems. In other words, do students improve from one problem to the next? Since eachproblem presented in the 3D Estimator concerns the use of volume estimation, we hypothesizedthat students might be able to use the answer from previous problems as reference points. Asdescribed below, Learning Factor Analysis 4 was used to investigate this hypothesis.Floundering One of Anderson, et al.'s 14 definitions of floundering with interactive learning software isrepeating the same kind of mistake three times (p. 174).
