Using Games to Enhance Learning and Teaching provides educators with easy and practical ways of using games to support student engagement and learning. Despite growing interest in digital game-based learning and teaching, until now most teachers have lacked the resources or technical knowledge to create games that meet their needs. The only realistic option for many has been to use existing games which too often are out of step with curriculum goals, difficult to integrate, and require high-end technology.

Using Games to Enhance Learning and Teaching offers a comprehensive solution, presenting five principles for games that can be embedded into traditional or online learning environments to enhance student engagement and interactivity. Extensive case studies explore specific academic perspectives, and featured insights from professional game designers show how educational games can be designed using readily accessible, low-end technologies, providing an explicit link between theory and practice. Practical in nature, the book has a sound theoretical base that draws from a range of international literature and research.

The Second Edition both builds on, and moves beyond, the first edition by: – updating the book in terms of recent developments, especially in qualitative interviewing – shortening the volume so that it can be used as the main text for graduate seminars in qualitative research, as well as a general reference book – featuring a how-to/instructional approach through empirically and theoretically informed discussions – enhancing the multidisciplinary flavour of the first edition.
