The Desk Game

This is the platform where the game is played. Teachers take on the role of game controller or ‘Puppet Master’ and teams of children play the game, accessing the game platform to upload the multimedia work which they produce as part of playing the game to the Game Desk . The teacher is able to continuously monitor each team’s ‘desk’ as it is maintained and updated by the teams. On the basis of a team’s success at any one level, the Puppet Master may promote them to the next level of the game.
