Plan for test cases- Methodology
PLAYERS
Facilitators
• Pre- and Post- tests include MCQs and Scenario questions
to measure the leaning outcomes
• Self-assessment questions to measure the learning
outcomes and enjoyment
• To classify value of the games in three categories: Good,
Medium and Bad
• Semi structured interview to find how well the game can
support the learning outcomes and to identify what
positive and negative points are.
• Archival research by doing study on existing records and
secoendary information, to find how well the game can be
a supportive learning method.
Designers
• Semi structured interview to find to what extent the
game design is correspondence with proposed design
framework
• To classify the well design game in three categories:
Good, Medium and Bad
