Abstract: Interactive games offer a greater understanding for applying legal principles so that students can offer sound advice. Many people most easily approach a topic through an activity in which they become fully engaged. The time before, between, or after game play is ripe with meta-game activities such as reflecting on strategy, discussing in groups what happened previously during game play, sharing stories and lessons learned. These activities are part of the serious game experience. This theory was applied successfully at Southern Cross University, School of Law and Justice using the ASX share market game.
