Game-Based Learning of Knowledge Reuse in Engineering Education

Abstract

This paper presents an educational game fostering a new experience-based approach to teaching knowledge transfer using a codification strategy alone. The goal is to address and highlight some common issues and challenges that occur during knowledge transfer in product development and that are often difficult for especially students to grasp through exclusively a theoretical teaching approach. The game is introduced to 60 students in the final year of their Master's curriculum. In parallel, the game has been applied in a similar setting in a comparable higher educational institution, as well as in a product development organization.“Sometimes you win—other times you lose and learn.”

Game-Based Learning (GBL) in Teaching Primary Mathematics

“…For this 21 st -century teaching and learning process, it need to address the outcome-based learning of each learner, and the suggested teaching strategy using educational games. Stenholm et al [8] emphasized that all games design elements that align well with established learning theories, such as social constructivism. Further, they concluded that educational games are used for educational purposes: such games can take a variety of forms from card games to board or digital games.…”
