Brain Games - Dundee
| The heat was really on for 32
students from a local Dundee school taking part this, our first
trial of a three day brain games which took place 23rd
– 25th October 2002. The whole primary 7 class, their
teacher and class room assistant jumped at the challenge and
produced some amazing games that used what they had learned about
the brain and their senses through the Brain Games activities and
the exhibits at Sensation Science Centre. |
 |
The project was run in partnership with the education team at
Sensation, with mentors from Sensation and At-Bristol. Local games
advisors from the School of Computing and Advanced Technologies at the
University of Abertay Dundee, were on hand to give expert advice about
games design.

 |
Our panel of Judges to take on the
challenge of identifying the top Brain game consisted of Lucy
Joyner from ICCAVE, John Duthie of Vs Entertainments and Ralph
Harrison from Scottish Enterprise Tayside.
The star prize for the project went to the team ‘The Brains’
for their game ‘Golden Challenge’ which incorporated all of the
teams ideas, strong research, was well prepared and marketed well
to the judges. This board game is a game of skill involving
challenging tasks and luck. |
