This project paper explores the idea of informal learning and how it can be directly tied to music and video games. To design an example of an educational, music-based video game, we first did background research on informal learning as a whole and its benefits in the classroom. Afterwards, we explored various examples of music-based games already being used. Finally, we looked to the knowledge and experience of music-tech teachers for input on what topics are important to explore. The results of these interviews then informed the design of a game prototype.
