Linking something that they have fun doing with  their academic pursuits, which at times they find boring is a good way of motivating them and increasing student interest in different academic disciplines in the school system.]]> 2019-05-02 15:15:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ako_george/ju5s05n16vg5/wish/356247854 I can see these games being applicable in the automotive technology and the building construction technology akeido_alexander https://padlet.com/ako_george/ju5s05n16vg5/wish/356256290 I would like to get an idea of the different types of games that are available for usage by student that  are in the technical vocational areas ,example if you are in the building and construction class and you are designing a roofing for home  trigs in maths ]]> 2019-05-02 15:30:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ako_george/ju5s05n16vg5/wish/356256290 ako_george https://padlet.com/ako_george/ju5s05n16vg5/wish/356264545  The ministry lists the following points

(ii)   Assist teachers in sourcing curriculum-relevant and age-appropriate educational games for use in classrooms. 

(iii)  Support and facilitate the development of curriculum-relevant edu-games for use in schools. 

(iv)  Provide training for teachers towards developing competence in edu-game design. 

(v)    Include GBL components in ICT-infusion training and professional development training for teachers.

We found these points to be adequate.
