Toolwire, a leading game-based learning provider, has experienced a surge of interest in game-based learning and an upswing in adoptions for its writing and environmental science games. In addition to several recent pilots at Arizona State University, Toolwire is seeing a growing interest in game-based learning among community colleges and public universities seeking to engage and retain students in foundational first-year courses. Among others, Chandler-Gilbert Community College, Mesa Community College, Austin Community College, and Utah Valley University (formerly Utah Valley Community College) are the most recent institutions to lead the way through this immersive, personalized learning approach.
