Card-based games as sustainable and reusable pedagogical tools
Authors: Anderson, D., Bobeva, M., Cownie, F. and Vijayakumaran, R.
Dates: 7 July 2025
Abstract:This is a hands-on workshop exploring innovative, scalable teaching tools that can be easily adapted across subjects. You’ll get to work with tools like subject revision cards, sustainability card games, and educational escape rooms—resources you can explore further on the DICE Café blog.
Inspired by popular games like Cards Against Humanity, Top Trumps, and Dominion, as well as sustainability-focused projects like the UN Geneva’s 170 Action Booklet Series, these games are designed to boost engagement and learning outcomes.
Additionally, you will collaborate on designing BU’s very own SUNRISE sustainability card game or your own teaching pedagogic approach in using card-based games in your practice.
