You will be utilizing your critical thinking and problem-solving skills...in reverse!
After learning about Breakout EDU games, and playing a few to get your feet wet, your group will create a game that can be used in future AP Lit (or other) classes. The game must be engaging, thematic, difficult, yet playable. We will go through the process step-by-step, and in the end we will test it out on groups of our peers and teachers!
