Abstract

[Chapter 6 distinguishes between problems and puzzles and helps the reader think through designing particular ones for his or her game. In doing so, the chapter explores various types of scaffolding and how scaffolding can best be used to support learning so all students can be challenged (Mind in Society, Harvard University Press, Cambridge, MA, 1980), thus keeping students in a state of flow (Flow: The psychology of optimal experience, Harper & Row, New York, 1990). This chapter also discusses different levels within a game and matches them with types of knowledge as well as possible gateways to the different levels.]
