How exciting for Mr Schutz and the children of 4SS that all their hard work had paid off in terms of validation of a learning unit that was longer than other units and slightly messier! It was also, however, a unit that fully engaged most of the children, achieving a depth of knowledge that was quite impressive. The children were using a gaming tool that bemuses most teachers and scares others. Well done to Mr Schutz for his innovative outlook and for placing the students at the centre of the design of the learning experience.
