Description:

In cooperation with the Vienna University of Technology a educational game for students was developed. While playing the game the studens gain knowledge of enviromental sustainability. Based on a didactical approach to the game a simulation called "SULI - Sustainable Living" was implemented. The main goal of the game is to produce, sell and buy goods of the daily life like food, beverages, cloths and newspapers. The production of the goods is supposed to be ecological. As a result of playing the game the students should base their real life shopping on the knowlegde of the game. For further information click here.
