Adventure and exploration in playful co-curricular learning

In this latest episode, Dr Kerr Castle (Quality Enhancement and Standards Specialist with QAA) sits down with Dr John Lean and Dr Catherine Elkin from Manchester Metropolitan University to discuss adventure and exploration in playful co-curricular learning.  

The podcast focusses on how metaphors and design principles borrowed from open world video games are supporting students to forge their own pathways in Manchester Metropolitan University’s award winning programme, Rise. 

An interactive game developed by Dr Lean is also available to play which allows you to explore the world of Rise and its key metaphors and activities.
