Presenting to my Institution

A few weeks ago in mid-May of 2023, I was asked to present my Herding Cats Capstone Project during my Technical College Institution's Advisory Committee Meeting. I presented the problem statement, process of inception, game reasoning, feedback, and hand-selected pre- and post- play quiz results.

The quiz results reflecting knowledge owned by each player, and what they reported gaining from the Herding Cats experience. I have been very surprised with some of the quiz results. Initially, the players were adults of varying backgrounds, some with experience in healthcare schooling. Recently, I have received play feedback from children as well!

Thus far, all but one player KNEW that Cardiovascular Diseases can cause Dementia!

100% of players KNOW that Dementia can cause visual changes including visual perception.

EVERY ADULT player answered that they believe Health Care Providers (HCP) do (at times) prescribe medications that conflict with each other! The few answers believing that HCP never prescribe conflicting medications, were children. This is an interesting glorification of HCP by children.
