Ray Kimball 42 Ed Games & Military Background

In this episode of Experience Points by University XP, host Dave Eng interviews Dr. Ray Kimball, the founder of 42 Educational Games Coaching and Design. Kimball discusses his experience teaching at West Point and how he incorporated games into his curriculum. He also talks about his decision to retire from the army and start 42Ed Games to help higher education faculty integrate games into their teaching. Ray explains how he assesses classroom and institutional contexts to find the best game for a particular faculty member and how he helps faculty members design educational games. Kimball emphasizes the importance of understanding institutional context when selecting games for a faculty member and shares examples of how different institutions may require different types of games. Ray’s approach offers faculty members an easy way to integrate games into their teaching while ensuring that the games are a good fit for their institution.
