Contextualising Games Based Learning

  1. Thanks a lot for this Clive. It was great to see how your school is learning about the world through games-based learning, then completing the circle by bringing it back to real-life contexts.

  2. Thx for Clive's presentation! Game-based-learning (GBL) is able to us learning via 'play games'. It's more practical and can stimulate our learning feeling in an interesting way, and more attractive on child education.
    Also, the pollution solving and environmental protection can 'learn' through GBL is a good point to review.

  3. Nice presentation, Clive! Interesting games are attractive to children and they will benefit a lot from the games. But I am a little concerned on parents' reaction to the GBL. Do they feel happy with the change?
