GameOn: The final step of Incluship

Content

This activity will guide you through the third and final step of using Incluship, the gamified tool that was created by Idealúdica and the partners of the “GameOn” project to assess inclusion competences acquired through game design.
﻿
This activity facilitates a final reflection about how the group has developed the inclusion competences. Each participant will sum the exploration points they’ve gained and then add them together to the competence islands boards and to the Incluship board. Everybody will then see if the group have achieved the goal chosen at the start of the game design or creative process.
﻿
This activity allows for a dynamic of cooperative reflection about what we’ve done as a group, and what we could improve. The activity, through the explorer journals, also facilitates a personal overview about the competences developed, the actions taken and which competences each person would need to improve.
﻿
This final session should be done only once at the end of the process and should last about 30/45 minutes, but it could last up to 1 hour depending on the size of the group.
﻿
1. The group evaluationThe session begins with a peer to peer group assessment.
Take all the exploration journals and redistribute them to all participants at random (be sure that no one has their own journal).
﻿
Each participant will read the name on the journal and will choose the 3 competences that, in their opinion, the person who owns the journal has developed the most during all the project activities. They will then assign 3, 2 and 1 points, respectively, on the 3 chosen competences, and write the points in the group points column.
﻿
For example:
If Mary receives Tom’s journal and believes that Tom, during the project’s activities, has worked the most on his Creativity, Problem solving and Collaboration competences, in this order, she will assign him 3, 2 and 1 points respectively and mark them in the right spaces in the “group points” column as shown in the picture below:
﻿
﻿
In turns, each participant will explain to other members of the group in which competences they have given points to the owner of the journal and the reasons for their selection.
Again, if working in a big group, this step can be done in small teams instead.
﻿
2. Global scores of the competence islandsAll participants will then return the exploration journals to their owners.
Each participant will sum the total points gained through the evaluation activities and the group evaluation, for each of the 12 competences, and write the result in the “Final score” column. This will give each participant an overview of which competences they have worked the most on throughout the project and which skills, knowledge and attitudes have been the most significant in their learning process.
﻿
Finally, for each competence, you will add up all the points that all participants obtained and mark each total in the competence island boards, that you put up on a wall or board at the beginning. These scores will showcase the global exploration points obtained by the whole group in each competence island.
﻿
﻿
﻿
3. Global Incluship score - Achieving the goalNow, go back to the 4 key competences that were chosen at the beginning of the process and sum together these values.
If the total amount of points is equal to or higher than the value of the challenge (calculated at the beginning and written in the Incluship board during the first session), it means that the group has achieved their goal and successfully built their Incluship!
If the total amount of points is lower than the goal, remind participants that this is part of a learning process and although the initial goal hasn’t been reached, there has been a lot of learning and competence development happening nonetheless.
﻿
4. Future plansTo close the last evaluation session, invite participants to share with the group their impressions, their feelings and where they will like to put in practice what they’ve learned and reflected on during the process.
In other words, where do they want to travel to on the Incluship they’ve helped to build?
﻿
﻿
To summarise…Do the peer to peer evaluation session, where each participant assigns points to another member of the group
Each participant sums up their points in each competence island, then sum up the points of the whole group for each competence island and mark them on the boards
Sum up the global points of the 4 key competences chosen at the beginning and check if the challenge score has been achieved
Reflect on the learning and future plans
