Educational Board Game Prototype

“Educational games are not fun, like broccoli dipped in chocolate. There are few examples of fun educational games and many boring ones.”
--Brian Winn

This was a sponsored project by the Central Ohio Diabetes Association, based in Columbus, Ohio. Working under the guidance of Dr. Liz Sanders, Dr. Peter Chan, and Paul Nini, I present a thoroughly researched and tested prototype for an educational game. This game teaches children living with diabetes, as well as their friends and family, about what it requires to manage diabetes and what that experience is like. This project is a featured case study in  “Convivial Design Toolbox: Generative Research for the Front End of Design.”
