storytelling and puzzles in a software engineering course
Storytelling has been used from time immemorial as a powerful educational tool to exchange and propagate complex ideas. Similarly, puzzles have been known as stimulators of thinking and problem solving skills. Both storytelling and puzzles found their rightful place in primary and secondary education through the years. However, their value in higher education has only been recognized recently.
