Abstract

Edugames4all are educational games designed to cover different aspects of the antibiotic and hygiene educational curriculum for 9-15 years old pupils. By integrating elements from a fantasy world and real life, the user can seamlessly learn about important topics such as micro-organisms, useful and harmful microbes, respiratory hygiene, food hygiene, prudent antibiotic use to name just a few. The games submerge the user in different worlds where s/he could be the size of bacteria, or a detective that solves mysterious cases by working with the best agency in problems related to microbes. The demo presentation will showcase the games and allow the participants to play them.
