This sounds like a super interesting idea for a game, especially since I know nothing about the steps to becoming a teacher…they sound really complicated! In the game, will the student actually have to take the Praxis Exam and PA/CORE testing, etc? Or will there just be a few questions, or will they have the option to study/not study/study a little bit, and then their decision there leads to their success with the exams? How long do you anticipate play time to be? Overall, this sounds like a really interesting game/concept. I’m wondering how it will appeal to players who aren’t pursuing an education degree from West Chester? Or, is that the only intended audience?
I’m really looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with! This is a really interesting and unique idea! Great job 🙂
]]>You guys’ game sounds really interesting to me as someone who also has to go through the whole, congested process of hoop-jumping for the Education side of a B.S.Ed. It’s tiring, stressful, and just annoying to get everything all prepared in the exact order and manner that we have to. The strict timing of everything has a tendency to loom over our experience with the education department.
I’m particularly looking forward to seeing how you guys end up making your game fun to play! We all know bureaucratic processes are a total blast, but I can’t wait to see what elements you add to your game that will make it enjoyable to play. Maybe some comedy? Maybe some horror? Maybe some crazy, meta stuff going on that critiques the system as you navigate through it?
I know you guys will rock this, whichever route you take or style you go for.
