Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Impact of Narrative, Character Creation, and Game Mechanics on Student Engagement in a Game-Based Chemical Engineering Laboratory Course1. IntroductionAs modern students have come of age in a time where video games, whether mobile, console, orsocial, have become ubiquitous, game-based learning (GBL) is gaining increased attention as atool used in education1-5. In GBL, games are used as environments and contexts where studentscan learn via trial-and-error with no permanent consequences6-8. Note that GBL is not merelyfree-form activity, but one with rules that guide and dictate the experience, as well as offering acondition in which the game can be “won”9,10.One

asengineering, defined as accountable disciplinary knowledge (ADK) [6], change over the courseof an undergraduate education and entry into an engineering profession. In the first years of anundergraduate engineering degree program, introductory classes often focus on textbookproblems, larger lectures, and individual written exams. The ability to produce specificnumerical results to written problems is therefore ADK. In later years, ADK increasingly shiftstowards teamwork, communication skills, research, and collection and analysis of data. Coursesbecome more project-based and assignments have longer timelines with more open-endedsolutions. For students this shift in ADK can be a source of frustration or anxiety, as theyexperience a misalignment between

While creation of devices and collection of data occurred in the lab spaces,the rest of this work typically occurred outside of lab. As such, it is perhaps no surprise thatmoving from UOL to MIL had no statistically significant impact on student project scores. Whileteam projects were scored higher on average in MIL than in UOL, the p value was only 0.088.Furthermore, it may be worth noting that the same observations could be made for student peerevaluations of their team members. In the test course, students switch teams for each of their sixprojects and they tend to work with almost every peer in their section. Part of the score for theirteam
