Learning by playing games

Students in the Laboratory Major complete the year by creating a final game to help study for the End of Course exam. The students in the pictures have created games like "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" and "Jeopardy". Creating the games helps the students to review information that they have learned and create a variety of questions for the games. Reviewing is much more fun for not only the students that make the game but also for the students that play the game.
