Clark, Michael J. – Journal of Economic Education, 2020
The Alchian Maze uses active learning for teaching important economic concepts like spontaneous order and the power of profit and loss. While the game is an effective teaching tool, it is also cheap, low tech, and requires little advance preparation. The author of this article provides an overview on how to create and run an Alchian Maze. A number…

Carman, Angela; Brady, Christy; Conatser, Trey – College Teaching, 2022
Game-based learning offers a compelling prospect for innovative teaching and student engagement, but popular examples often involve either complex, time-consuming systems that invite high-order thinking, or simpler, quick versions that reward memorization. Far less common are games that fit low-stakes activities (such as concept review) but…

Paciarotti, Claudia; Bertozzi, Gabriele; Sillaots, Martin – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
Gamification is usually defined as the use of game structure components in circumstances that are not commonly associated with games. In engineering studies, Gamification and its sub-concept of Serious Games are rather widespread pedagogical models. Just like in other application scopes, the approach to their utilisation or analysis is always…
