Ocean literacy and how serious games can play a part: the case of the jellyfish and the microplastics governance game MoreGoJelly!
Researchers developed and evaluated 'MoreGoJelly!', a serious game focused on jellyfish and microplastics governance, as a tool to enhance ocean literacy among the public. The study reviewed the history of serious games for ocean education since the 1970s and presented outcomes from a series of game deployments, finding that hybrid and analogue game formats are increasingly relevant alongside digital approaches.
In My Boat: a card game designed by community researchers to explore the impact of environmental change on marine ecosystems
Researchers developed an educational card game exploring climate and pollution threats to marine ecosystems through a participatory action research methodology in collaboration with a grassroots community group, finding that participants had general environmental awareness but limited understanding of the causes of environmental change. The study demonstrates that community-co-designed card games can effectively serve as accessible tools for disseminating marine pollution and climate science to the public.
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.
"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.
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.
Decision: Ocean literacy and how serious games can play a part: the case of the jellyfish and the microplastics governance game MoreGoJelly! — R0/PR4
Researchers evaluated the MoreGoJelly! serious game, a hybrid analogue game about jellyfish and microplastics governance, testing it across three Norwegian geographical regions with future-generation stakeholders to assess its effectiveness for ocean literacy education.
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.
The role of the arts and crafts subject in education for sustainable development
Researchers conducted a qualitative study on the role of arts and crafts education in a Norwegian interdisciplinary teaching project focused on marine litter, using participatory observation and the Visual Art Based Participatory Method to analyze student outputs from grades 5-10. Results indicate that creative making processes in arts and crafts uniquely enable students to express and process emotional responses to marine plastic pollution beyond standard curriculum competence goals.
How Marine Plastic Pollution Education Develops Secondary School Students’ Sustainability Competences
Researchers investigated how marine plastic pollution education affects Norwegian secondary school students' sustainability competences, knowledge, and attitudes toward biodiversity protection using pre- and post-test questionnaires with 50 students. Results showed that structured marine plastic pollution curricula can improve students' understanding of ecosystem impacts and motivate protective behaviors.
