  • Abstract
    Our current students belong to a new generation that lives with Internet, uses computers, and plays video games as natural skills. For that generation, education based on traditional classes is difficult. In this contribution, we propose learning RADAR fundamentals by using video games. The newly designed game is described, and has been tested by a group of students. Their learning results are promising for continuing the work in that direction.
