Digital Games

Operation: Ebola!

If you were an Ebola virus, would you have what it takes to successfully infect someone?

In collaboration with  Dr. Tracie Addy  (Yale Center for Teaching and Learning) and Dr. Derek Dube, (University of St. Joseph), we investigated effects of serious games on learning.  For this project, we designed a digital STEM game for an immunology course based on mechanisms of Ebola infection.

After you construct your Ebola genome, dodge blood vessel structures and shoot down immune cells to infect your human victim!  Can your high score make our leaderboard?
