Hi all, I'm new here--just purchased a license for KerbalEDU. My name is Rachel and I'm a PhD student in geology. I'm reviewing this software for a graduate-level Games for Learning and Simulation class. I only have about two weeks to play this game and write a paper judging its classroom merits. So I'm hoping I might get some feedback from educators who have used KerbalEDU in their classrooms as part of a curriculum. Do your students enjoy the game? For about how long do they play it in one sitting? For how long (days/weeks?) do you use KerbalEDU as instructional material? How easy/hard is it for students to learn the game? Do they find the story line engaging? Do you think that playing KerbalEDU improves learning outcomes in your classroom? Is there anything else you would like to share with me about using KerbalEDU in an educational setting? Thanks in advance for your time!
