Speakers: Michael Renne
Sponsoring Committee: Innovative Teaching and Learning
Date: Tuesday, May 21, 2019
Time: 10:00 am EDT / 9:00 am CDT / 8:00 am MDT / 7:00 am PDT
Description: Evolution in design and technology has significantly increased the use of games in the classroom, offering great potential to engage students in exciting new ways. Educational games have come a long way since Math Blaster, but there is a distressingly low number of games that are suitable for higher education.
Biography: Michael Renne has been teaching at community colleges in Western Oregon since 2012, and he has been a member of ORMATYC since 2013. He is currently studying design principles for learning games to earn his PhD in Mathematics from Oregon State University, and he recently received a faculty innovator grant award from Linn-Benton Community College to implement a learning game in a mathematics class based on those principles.
