Title: Five years of the Pupils' Academy of Serious Gaming: Enhancing the ability to study
Abstract: For five years now we have been inviting highly talented students from the upper vocational schools of Bavaria to the `Technische Universität München' TUM to participate in the Pupils' Academy of Serious Gaming. The pedagogical approach of upper vocational schools is the practical application of sciences. Based on this approach we enable the participants to change their learning perspective from `school student' to `university student': For two days they take part in a regular course at TUM based on our in-house business game Go4C. The goal is to learn how to self-assess and develop important aspects of their personal ability to study. This paper presents the Pupils' Academy and Go4C as a tool to enhance the ability to study at an early stage before leaving school.
