Serious Games and Educational Designer
About Claire Dewitt
In 2017, Claire Dewitt led the design of 'EcoLogic', a classroom-based simulation used across 320 U.S. middle schools that taught systems thinking through player-driven ecosystem restoration, where every decision altered soil pH, pollinator migration, and crop yield in real time. Unlike gamified quizzes or point-based motivators, her work treats learning as emergent narrative: students don’t ‘solve’ problems, they inherit consequences, negotiate trade-offs with peers, and revise mental models mid-game. She co-authored the 'Ludic Scaffolding Framework', now cited in UNESCO’s 2023 guidelines on game-based pedagogy, which insists that mechanics must mirror cognitive processes, not just content. Her prototypes are built in Unity but tested first with paper prototypes drawn on napkins during teacher focus groups, because fidelity without fidelity to classroom reality is noise. She doesn’t ask 'What’s fun?', she asks 'What friction reveals understanding?'
