Immune Attack
Immune AttackImmune Attack is an educational video game created by the Federation of American Scientists and Brown University, in collaboration with the University of Southern California, under a grant from the National Science Foundation. The game is designed to teach immunology to high school students as well as first year college students.

"Longtime proponents of using video games as sources of learning, the Federation of American Scientists put its money where its mouth is. FAS released Immune Attack, an educational video game designed to teach immunology to AP level high school students and combines the most current research on teaching methodologies with a 3D first-person shooter game. 'The key to the game was making sure it was fun while also covering accurate and complex immunology topics,' said Dr. Michelle Lucey-Roper, director of the FAS Learning Technologies Program. The game is free, although not open source, and can be downloaded here. Sorry, no Mac version yet."

Chucky’s Chicken Stacker
Chucky the ChickenIn Chucky’s Chicken Stacker, available at the PBS Kids website, students identify words that have a specific vowel sound (e.g., short a). It takes 5 correct words to win the game. Students can select the speed at which the words are shown and choose between two levels of difficulty.

REVIEW by WHPS:   Excellent for low intermediate ESOL students.

Rabbits and Wolves
Rabbits and Wolves software screenshotWith the Rabbits and Wolves simulation at Project Interactivate, students explore how nature keeps balance by varying the number of rabbits and wolves that live in a defined space. It includes directions and activities for students as well as background information for teachers.

REVIEW by WHPS:  The instructions are minimal.  There is no tutorial.  You have to try it.  Look at what happened when I clicked on it.

<<<<

Students will be asked to create a manual about "how to change the outcomes" and "tips for keeping more of the ecosystem in balance."

Here is a conclusion from a study:
...work by Rieber, Tzeng, and Tribble (2004) with 52 students supports the need for students to provide explanations of the concepts and principles that the game or simulation is designed to represent. 

CHINESE:  有52名学生被里伯,曾晋皓和特里布尔(2004)的工作支持,需要为学生提供的游戏或模拟设计为代表的概念和原理的解释。

Simulation serves as a dynamic model of reality, which could promote deep learning and durable change.   
CHINESE:   仿真作为现实的动态模型,它可以促进深度学习和持久的变化。

RECOMMENDATIONS FROM Justin Z., the WHPS consultant for simulations:


Educational Simulations Build Skills
Some students believe that they learn from simulations.  They take SCREENSHOTS of important events online and then they explain "what happened."
1) Here is the problem.
2) These were my options.
3) This is what I decided to do and
4) This is what happened later.


Here is the feedback from Justin Z., a consultant to West Hollywood Private School
"Some video games are clearly without ethical growth.  There is just a series of things to destroy.
However, simulations involve (1) making choices, (2) learning the rules and (3) living with the consequences.   This means that (a) you can shoot the bad guy who stole the package that you were delivering, or (b) you can take back the package and let the guy live.  If you let the bad guy live, he might help you later.


These choices mean that we have to govern our emotions.  We might want to "give that bad guy what he deserves" and we want to "teach him a lesson," but what are the possibilities for the future?  We


A simulation like MineCraft involves
-- reading instructions
-- asking for help
-- working with others
-- looking at what works for others and deciding to build something similar or better
-- taking the first step
-- looking for another way to do something.


These abilities can be developed alone but are more likely to be created with other students.  


Let's give labels to these abilities (using Tony Wagner's vocabulary)


-- reading instructions    (ACCESSING and ANALYZING INFORMATION)


-- asking for help (ORAL COMMUNICATION)


-- working with others  (COLLABORATING)

-- looking at what works for others and deciding to build something similar or better

教育模拟打造技巧 有些学生认为,他们从模拟学习。他们采取的重要事件SCREENSHOTS在线,然后他们解释“发生了什么事。” 1)这是问题所在。 2)这些是我的选择。 3)这是我决定做的, 4)这是后来发生了什么事。 以下是贾斯汀Z.,顾问西好莱坞私立学校反馈 “一些视频游戏显然是没有道德的增长。现在只是一系列的事情给毁了。 然而,模拟涉及(1)作出选择,(2)学习规则和(3)生活的后果。这意味着,(a)您可以拍摄坏人谁偷了你被交付,或(b)你可以拿回来的包,让那家伙活包。如果让坏人活,他可能会帮你以后。 这些选项的意思是,我们必须管理我们的情绪。我们可能要“给那个坏家伙,他有什么值得”,我们要“教训他,”但什么是未来的可能性?我们 像我的世界仿真涉及 - 阅读说明 - 寻求帮助 - 与他人共事 - 在看什么对别人和决定建立类似或更好的东西 - 迈出第一步 - 寻找另一种方式做一些事情。 这些能力可以单独使用,开发,但更可能与其他学生创建。 让我们给标签,以这些能力(使用托尼·瓦格纳的词汇) - 阅读说明书(访问和分析信息) - 寻求帮助(口语交流) - 与他人合作(协作) - 在看什么对别人和决定建立类似或更好的东西
