Using a variety of instructional, managerial and reflective strategies, pre-service teachers will plan and implement well-structured lessons that have high learner expectations for elementary and secondary levels. Through Game Centered Approaches, pre-service teachers will: 1) learn to create safe, collaborative, and developmentally appropriate game environments through games modification, 2) analyze and reflect on instruction and task design, as well as 3) assess student game performance. Emphasis will be placed on developing problem-solving strategies, skill execution, and social-emotional competencies for diverse learners of all levels to challenge themselves and take ownership of learning in invasion games and field-run-score games.
