Facilitation
Teaching and facilitating with simulation games on the Actee Hub is an engaging way to motivate and involve the students in their own learning in class. The games work as tools to make theoretical learning more practice-oriented through relatable casework and decision-making, which moves learning closer to worklife.
Teaching or facilitating with games on the hub could typically involve these 4 steps:
Step 1
The teacher creates a session for the specific class and/or module with a so-called SessionBuilder tool provided online
Step 2
The teacher introduces relevant theory, which can include theory directly applied in the chosen game as well as related theory within the field
Step 3
All students are divided into groups, they onboard the CBS customized hub and begin playing and negotiating decisions
Step 4
Throughout the game play, the teacher gathers students' reflections and discussions around the physical floorboard in class or on a digital floorboard
Theory & Practice
Build your own game case
Besides the many game cases with different stories, subjects and learning focus, the Actee Hub enables teachers and students to build and customize their own game cases. In this way, new theories and cases can be applied to the game builder for involving lectures.
The game builder can also be used by the students as a group project or as part of an internship where the students build a simulation as part of an assignment product or presentation.
