AAE 251 Introduction to Aerospace Design, created by Daniel DeLaurentis, an assistant professor in aeronautics and astronautics; Sean Brophy, an assistant professor in engineering education; and David Ebert, a professor of electrical and computer engineering.
"'Introduction to Aerospace Design' is going digital as a multiplayer online "serious" game that takes the concept of virtual gaming and turns it into an educational experience. Instead of sitting in a classroom listening to a lecture, students in the required course will participate in an interactive gaming experience that develops the skills they would need on the job...[The course won the Discovery Park's] the Games-to-Teach competition for Purdue faculty who wanted to develop a serious gaming curriculum for an existing class. By submitting the winning proposal during that competition, DeLaurentis, Brophy and Ebert received $150,000 to support the course's development." To be first offered in Fall 2009.
