Title
IT’S ALL FUN AND GAMES UNTIL SOMEBODY LEARNS

Synopsis
At Wentworth Institute of Technology the authors led students of both Industrial Design
and Physics in the creation of gamified lab kits that deliver a more complete learning experience for all participants. In this paper, we review the process and creation of the lab-kits from both scientific and design perspectives. We then show how the design and implementation of these lab-kits led to appreciable gains in both physics and design learning environments.
