Escape the Semester: Game-Based Pedagogy in a Math Course for Non-Science Majors
PRIMUS, v33 n6 p637-651 2023
This article presents an experience in teaching mathematical thinking through games in a math course for non-science majors. The course described here has run twice on the campus of Sam Houston State University and is a combination of escape room pedagogy and game-based pedagogy. From these courses, I note an increased engagement of students with course material, more positive attitudes about the course, and stronger learning.
