The Game “SustentaQuiz - Pie in the Face”, to Raise Awareness About Sustainability

Abstract

The use of educational games is emphasized as an innovative strategy that allows simulating environmental scenarios and dilemmas, encouraging collaboration and teamwork. In addition to facilitating understanding of the consequences of individual actions, the playfulness of games increases student interest, leading to greater information retention and a desire to proactively explore sustainability. The objective is to educate children and adolescents about the three dimensions of sustainability (environmental, social and economic) in a playful way. Players answered multiple-choice questions, accumulating points and avoiding fun questions like a "pie in the face." The game includes specific categories that address critical issues and seek to raise awareness among participants about safe practices in everyday life.
