Activity 3: Using the On-Line Game Rubric below as a guide create a on-line game rubric that can be used by the teachers in your grade level. Use the rubric to review at least three on-line games from the links in the table below and create an annotated set guide for faculty in your grade level making recommendations for the games. Each group should have three reviewed games per person on your group.
