Abstract

Video games provide insight into potential design strategies that can be incorporated into problem-based learning (PBL) environments. To guide our work in developing game-like PBL environments, we analyzed the following aspects of representative video games to extract design strategies: problem presentation, cognitive tools, formative assessment/feedback, and learner agency. Our analysis indicates that video games offer a plethora of strategies that can enrich PBL. This paper presents our methods for analysis, findings, and implications of the study for the design of PBL.
