Relevant SDGs

Icon für SDG 4Icon für SDG 14Icon für SDG 15

How to use

Suitable as warm-up activities or homework assignments in introductory environmental science courses. Can be used for pre-assessment or to reinforce key concepts throughout the semester.

Faculty can integrate quizzes as low-stakes assessments or discussion starters. Consider using quiz results to identify knowledge gaps and guide further instruction.

Teaching format tip

Simulation/Serious Game

Establish clear learning objectives before gameplay and debrief systematically afterward. Students should document decision-making processes, unexpected outcomes, and strategic adaptations during play. Use multiple rounds to test different approaches and compare results. Connect game mechanics to real-world systems, helping students transfer insights from virtual to actual contexts.
