High School Students from Games for Change @ Thomas A. Edison CTE High School
About this Project:
Our project addresses the problems of climate change and how we are part of the problem, but we can also be part of the solution. When thinking about our ideas, we wanted to address a problem that was currently harming us, not only one specific group of people, but all of us living on earth.
Our project is a quiz that you take after reading our presentation. The quiz will have questions regarding climate change. We also have included a rollover project page to describe the way we are all contributing to ruining the earth and how we can also be part of the solution.
These are the questions that you will find on the quiz that are on the WIX presentation:
- What is climate change?
- what are the major causes of climate change?
- what is one of the greenhouse gasses?
- what is biodegradable?
- What Layer Does the Greenhouse Gasses Get Trapped In

I really appreciated you including the quiz on the site; being able to play a game while learning always makes the experience better and the knowledge stick.

I love that this quiz was both educational and made me laugh! I do care about turtles, I swear! I also appreciate the great drawing you submitted. Excellent work!

Your website and slides are visually appealing. Using a game for education was a great move to make and help keep users engaged. I wonder if you might make the game more difficult and provide more explanation of the concepts in a different part of the app. The illustration is wonderful!

Wow - great work going above and beyond here with a multi-media approach through the quiz, games, and informational sites. The quiz was easy to follow, engaging, educational, utilized graphics and feedback well, and helps engage the user upfront for them to "test" their knowledge and understanding in this area. Then going to the games and website page allows them to really dive deeper, going from "gamification" of the topic to true education and knowledge sharing. Given the wealth of information provided here it would be great to know the source of information / could link to "Learn More" sections.
I also enjoyed the "About" project section where you highlighted true team work - the ability to bring together a group of people with diverse skill sets to collectively create something greater than any individual could have done. Keep up the good work in challenging yourselves to go "above and beyond" on your projects, it's a great life skill.
