BMP3003 Further Academic Skills: Game Design Project - Cut the Plag

This document details the design of an educational game called "Cut the Plag," created as a project for the BMP3003 Further Academic Skills module. The game aims to educate players about plagiarism and academic misconduct through an interactive wheel-spinning mechanism that presents questions related to academic integrity. The game incorporates a points system to track player progress and offers a mobile application for easy access. The project emphasizes the importance of academic integrity within a university setting, highlighting its role in fostering honesty, creativity, and fair assessment. The skills used to produce the game included team management, presentation skills, and organizational changes, which are all beneficial for the students. The document also references several academic sources to support the project's concepts and design choices.
