Please play (or attempt to play) at least one of the Serious Games that are linked in this week’s Book or Resources.
Discuss and give feedback on the game (or compare two or more games), using these questions as a guide:
Would this game help an individual manage their health?
Would this game be helpful for training students or health professionals in key ideas about health?
Was the game fun? Interesting? Worth playing?
How would you suggest that games be incorporated into online classes like HLTH 54, if at all?
What barriers did you experience in accessing the game, if any?
In relation to the game Outbreak at Watersedge in particular – Did you play this game when it was posted as an optional activity in Week 2? Did you play it now? If you played it at both times, was the experience different in any way after learning more about public health?
Any other suggestions for how to use games in HLTH 54?
2a. Replay or comment 4 to 5 sentences for this student?
I believe this game would give a sense of how to manage their health so I’d say yes it would help. This would defanitely be a good resource for training students or health officials so they can use it to review the material or just brush up on their knowledge. I find the game was a little difficult because I don’t have much knowledge of all these antibiotics so it was hard when it came to the pop quiz but I find that it was worth while because I learned some new health vocabulary that I never knew before. I would suggest this game, I wouldn’t think a lot of people will know all the answers in this pop quiz unless they’re a health professional. This was my first time playing so it was difficult at first but when I gave it a try on the second round, I had a better score.
