The Lab Partner Board Games Faculty Learning Community brings together faculty interested in creating, adapting, or exploring STEM-themed board games for use in teaching. We work together on multiple open game-based teaching projects at different stages of development, including initial conception, game design and playtesting, integration into courses, and testing and piloting ideas with students. The Lab Partner Board Games FLC is a member of GAMA.
