Selecting the game-based activity that best accomplishes your learning goals shouldgo hand in hand with an activity that aligns with the interests of the participants. For instance,certain individuals do not engage well with competitive type games. In this case, use of acooperative game would be better suited for the class environment [9].Debriefing is a vital aspect of game-based learning strategies as it provides feedback to helplearners reflect on their experience and understand how games can improve overall instructionaleffectiveness [12]. Hays describes three phases of debriefing including self-reflection about thegame experience, guided reflection on their individual experiences and personal meanings

Phase I leverages bothcollaborative inquiry and collaborative autoethnography, guiding our exploration of our livedexperiences and respective academic cultures. Initially focusing on our own experiences, as earlycareer engineering education faculty, allows a deeper understanding of our experiences, bothgood and bad, that may not be revealed in a less intimate approach. The longitudinal nature ofour approach also makes it possible for us to document and reflect on our experiences and howwe navigate obstacles.

Our intent is to explore student reflection and outcomes of service-learning throughqualitative methodology. We utilized narrative inquiry through large descriptive data sets(Denzin & Lincoln, 2018). Qualitative methods allowed us to review student narratives andunderstand reflective processes (Chase, 2018). The goal of this study was to examine studentexperiences and their reflection of material to better communicate outcomes and benefits ofenrolling in a service-learning course.A WiSE approach: Examining how service-learning impacts first-year women in STEM 7 We instituted purposeful random sampling (Light, Singer, & Willett, 1990) to recruitcollege women in STEM, enrolled in a service-learning leadership

To determine whether studentsengaged in the kind of reflection and planning that was intended, the post-performancesubmissions from four of the nine course sections were collected and analyzed. Each of thesesections had nine teams of four, for a total of 144 students on 36 teams. All of these teams didwell enough that they did not have to submit analyses for the first two performance tests, andonly two teams were required to do an analysis for performance test four. This pattern wasconsistent with the rest of the course sections, as more than half of the teams fared poorly on thethird test, but passed the others, often with bonus points. Therefore, the analysis will focusexclusively on the responses to the third performance test

Although only18 states and the District of Columbia have formally adopted the NGSS, other states, includingSouth Dakota, Montana, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia have adopted similar standards.Unlike the previous set of national science education standards (NRC, 1996), the Framework forK-12 Science Education (NRC, 2012) places engineering and technology alongside the naturalsciences for two critical reasons: to reflect the importance of understanding the human-builtworld and to
