The internet is full of jargons
How might we make it fun and easy for teens to get familiarized with jargon used on the internet, in order to encourage more responsible online behavior?
Teens spend a lot of time online
Watching my siblings navigate their interactions made me realize that teens are often very excited about using new devices and are not concerned about digital safety. It is common for children to want to share personal information online as they seek high social currency. However, it is important to be aware of the potential risks and drawbacks of this behavior.
Board games make learning fun!
After a LOT of ideation, the decision to design a board game was finalized. Games promotes interactive learning with peers, facilitating easy understanding of actions and repercussions subconsciously. It offers different perspectives for a deeper understanding and encourages screen-off time, providing a valuable non-digital learning experience; especially for teens.
