At the USA Science and Engineering Festival Expo, October 23 and 24 on the National Mall, lots of kids played Immune Attack in the FAS booth. Since it's a 3rd person shooter styled game, that takes place inside the body, and since it accurately reflects the actual 3D environment of a white blood cell... Immune Attack is pretty popular... These two children explain what they learned while playing. The first child says he "Changed a cell into another type of cell" so it could"go fight infection." And the second child is talking about the two proteins that play two different roles in the process of changing that cell: The "yellow one makes the white blood cell slow down" and the "brown one makes it stop and disappear..." I am collecting data that demonstrates that students, who play the game for 2 40-minute class periods really do remember the process, the names of the cells and proteins and come away with an understanding of how molecules affect cell behavior...
