The second webinar of the Erasmus+ project “The Climate Heritage Game” was held on the 25th of March, and it proved to be an inspiring and informative event. Educators from various European countries gathered to explore innovative approaches to teaching climate change and engage students in active learning through gamification.
The webinar covered a range of topics, starting with an introduction to the Climate Heritage Game itself. This interactive game serves as a valuable tool for teachers, providing a unique and engaging way to educate students about climate change and its impact on cultural heritage. By incorporating gamification elements, such as challenges and rewards, the Climate Heritage Game fosters critical thinking and empowers students to become active participants in climate action.
The training course offered as part of the project was another highlight of the webinar. Participants learned about the course’s structure, content, and the various modules designed to equip educators with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively implement the Climate Heritage Game in their classrooms. The training course aims to empower teachers by providing them with comprehensive resources and lesson plans and many more. By integrating the game into their teaching practices, educators can create an immersive and dynamic learning environment that motivates students to explore climate change topics and propose innovative solutions.
During the webinar, participants had the opportunity to experience a walkthrough of the Climate Heritage Game. Through a process of considering the consequences of their actions, students develop a deeper understanding of climate change and its potential impacts, fostering a sense of responsibility and empathy towards our shared heritage.
One of the key takeaways from the webinar was the importance of actively engaging students through gamification. By incorporating game-based learning approaches, educators can capture students’ attention, enhance their motivation, and create a positive learning environment. The Climate Heritage Game provides a powerful means to integrate gamification into climate change education, enabling teachers to unlock their students’ potential as agents of change.
The success of the second webinar of the Erasmus+ project “The Climate Heritage Game” highlights the growing interest among teachers in innovative teaching methods that foster environmental awareness and action. By leveraging gamification and interactive learning, educators can cultivate a new generation of environmentally conscious citizens.
Join us in this exciting journey to empower students, enhance climate change education, and preserve our invaluable cultural heritage. Together, we can create a brighter and more sustainable future for all.
