N2 - Energy topics have remained dominant in the political arena in the United States since September 11, 2001 and various energy policy statements have been focused on the need for research and development. To effectively engage and attract undergraduate students to studies in energy however, the structure of presentation of energy information and learning must be expanded. This paper presents two learning games - "Who Wants to be an Engineer?" and "Energy Jeopardy" that are designed to capture the interest of undergraduates as they are introduced to various topics on electric energy systems.
