Students worked through a design-based challenge, meeting the criteria and constraints in their final historic board game design. They were given the opportunity to research an historic event or time period of their choice, and their board games ranged from about 3100 BCE to present day. To top it off, they create a board game instruction manual in the form of a Google doc or a Canva pamphlet design, outlining all of the rules, set-up information, tie breaker strategies, and more.
