Research in this area of learning suggests that using games in education promotes social interaction (Waytz &amp; Gray, 2018), improves mental health (Cruea, 2020), and reduces isolation among young people (Valkenburg &amp; Peter, 2009). Serious games develop characteristics such as self-discipline, motivation, and autonomy (Goul\u00e3o &amp; Menedez, 2015; Kirmizi, 2015; Roddy et al., 2017; Duchatelet &amp; Donche, 2019). In short: using games promotes a state of well-being and also facilitates meaningful learning. But above all&#8230; games are an enjoyable and engaging way of exploring complex concepts and difficult choices in a positive and hopeful manner&#8230; perhaps the real key at the heart of the climate crisis and its challenges. This session gives lots of practical advice on using serious games in the classroom and points towards a number of useful and free online resources and materials that can help teachers take the first steps into a whole new world!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Conor Galvin Director, Doctoral Studies in Education \/ PhD programme at UCD College of Social Sciences &amp; Law School of Education.
