ClearMobile Augmented Reality Games Towards Smart Learning City Environments: Learning About Sustainability
This study explored how mobile augmented reality games can teach sustainability concepts, including environmental pollution from plastics, within smart city learning environments. Students who played location-based AR games showed increased awareness of environmental protection and sustainability issues. The research suggests that gamified learning tools could be effective at raising public awareness about environmental challenges including plastic pollution.
Learning Effects of Augmented Reality and Game-Based Learning for Science Teaching in Higher Education in the Context of Education for Sustainable Development
Researchers tested an augmented reality game-based learning environment called 'Beat the Beast' to teach university students about microplastics across biology, chemistry, and engineering disciplines. A study of 203 pre-service teachers compared settings with and without augmented reality and game elements to measure effects on motivation, knowledge, and sustainability outcomes. The findings contribute to understanding how emerging educational technologies can support interdisciplinary science teaching about environmental topics.
"raising Students’ Awareness About Nature Conservation: from the Park to the City"
This paper presents the EduCITY project, which uses mobile devices, augmented reality, and outdoor games to teach students about nature conservation and environmental sustainability. The approach brings environmental education out of the classroom into urban and natural settings. The project is relevant to microplastics awareness as it promotes environmental literacy in school-age children.
"value of Amobile Game-based App Towards Education for Sustainability"
This paper describes the EduPARK mobile app, which uses game-based learning to promote sustainability education in park environments. The tool encourages students to explore local ecosystems and learn environmental concepts through interactive play. Apps like this can build long-term pro-environmental attitudes that may reduce plastic waste behavior.
Gamification and ocean literacy in early secondary education
This study evaluated the use of a gamified mobile app to improve ocean literacy and environmental awareness in secondary school students. Engaging young people about ocean health through digital games could help build understanding of microplastic pollution and motivate behavior change.
Promoting Sustainable Behavior Using Serious Games: SeAdventure for Ocean Literacy
This study evaluated a serious video game called SeAdventure designed to improve ocean literacy and promote sustainable behavior around marine plastic pollution. Results indicated that game-based education can effectively increase environmental awareness and motivation for pro-ocean actions among players.
"raising Students’ Awareness About Nature Conservation: from the Park to the City"
This is a duplicate entry for the EduCITY project paper (same as 45586), describing the use of mobile learning, augmented reality, and environmental sensors to raise student awareness about nature conservation. The project combines digital tools with outdoor exploration to promote sustainable development education. Environmental education initiatives are important for cultivating the behavior changes needed to address plastic pollution.
Designing Educational Game to Increase Environmental Awareness
Researchers designed an educational video game to raise environmental awareness about plastic waste and ocean pollution in Indonesian students. The game showed measurable improvements in environmental knowledge and pro-environmental attitudes among players.
Educational games about the environment: The microplastics escape game OCEAN EYE
Researchers developed and evaluated the OCEAN EYE microplastics escape game as an educational intervention targeting awareness and pro-environmental behavior among Austrian participants aged 15 and older, designing an evaluation framework to measure feasibility, willingness to act against microplastic pollution, and overall player experience.
Design of an Intrinsically Motivating AR Experience for Environmental Awareness
Researchers designed an augmented reality learning experience called 'Resized Plastic' to raise environmental awareness about microplastics by leveraging intrinsic motivation principles. The experience was built on Dunleavy's AR framework to provide users with a systemic overview of the microplastics issue and connect it to everyday actions.
Development of microplastics pollution e-module in Sengguruh reservoir based on problem-based learning
Researchers developed a problem-based learning e-module on microplastic pollution in the Sengguruh Reservoir, achieving validity ratings of 95-100% from expert validators and practicality ratings above 93% from both teachers and students.
Marine odyssey: a non-immersive virtual reality game for marine litter awareness / Hykarl Ukasyah Mohamad Azahar and Fadhlina Izzah Saman
Researchers developed a non-immersive virtual reality game called 'Marine Odyssey' aimed at raising public awareness about marine litter and its impacts, using a Game Development Life Cycle framework to build an educational game-based learning tool.
Designing and Developing Digital Computer Game of Plastic Waste Awareness for Young Children
Researchers designed a digital educational computer game to raise plastic waste awareness among young children, using character-driven gameplay to teach waste management behaviors. The game was developed through iterative visual design and tested for its ability to engage children and build positive attitudes toward reducing plastic pollution.
Application of gamification in Early Childhood Education and Primary Education: thematic analysis
This systematic review of 24 studies found that gamification in early childhood and primary education improved academic skills, collaboration, and student motivation across subjects. This study is not related to microplastics or environmental health but was included in the dataset due to its classification as a systematic review.
Contextual Teaching and Learning in Learning Environmental Pollution: the Effect on Student Learning Outcomes
This study evaluated contextual teaching and learning approaches for environmental pollution education, finding that connecting plastic pollution and waste concepts to real-world situations significantly improved student comprehension and motivation compared to conventional instruction.
“From Gamers into Environmental Citizens”: A Systematic Literature Review of Empirical Research on Behavior Change Games for Environmental Citizenship
This systematic review of 15 years of empirical research found that behavior change games can promote pro-environmental attitudes and knowledge, though evidence for lasting behavioral change remains limited. The findings are relevant to microplastic reduction efforts because they suggest that gamified interventions may raise awareness about plastic pollution but need stronger design to drive sustained reductions in plastic consumption.
«Let’s Go Deep into the Game to Save Our Planet!» How an Immersive and Educational Video Game Reduces Psychological Distance and Raises Awareness
Researchers found that an immersive educational video game about plastic pollution effectively reduced psychological distance and increased awareness among players, suggesting that interactive media can be a powerful tool for environmental education beyond traditional climate change messaging.
