CARD-tamen™ Two Summers - UConn Two Summers

CARD-tamen™ Two Summers is a special edition of the commercially-available game CARD-tamen™ designed to help educators playfully debate the intersection of contemporary content knowledge, pedagogy, learning theory, and instructional technology. In standard play, players rotate through two roles—Judges (i.e., individuals who evaluate player competency) and Provocateurs/Challengers (i.e., individuals tasked with making arguments on behalf of their chosen cards)—to engage in back-and-forth discussion about multiple Educational Technology topics.

There are multiple rulesets for CARD-tamen™ Two Summers, each variant targeting a slightly different set of objectives and providing a slightly different experience. The TPACK Variant, for example, asks players to strategically-integrate technology, pedagogy, content knowledge, and learning theory from the perspective of a technology coordinator, which aligns more directly with the ISTE Standards for Technology Coaches than the Standard Variant (see: https://id.iste.org/connected/standards/for-coaches).
