Description

How can hybrid games & physical exercise help special needs students in the ages of 12-20 years old collaborate better and build more trust in themselves and others to become more independent? A project in collaboration with Orion and Lectorate Games & Play.

Playful Learning

We, the Playful Learning project group, are going to design a game for our target group. These are teenagers with light to moderate cognitive and physical difficulties, in the age category 12 to 20. Our target group  consists out of students of Orion College Beijerland: Special Education.
The game we are going to develope will be used in the gymnastic lessons.
.
Our main question is: How can hybrid games & physical exercise help the students with special needs in the ages of 12 – 20 years old collaborate better and build more trust in themselves and others to become more independent in life after school.
.
In the next 20 weeks we will be working on this project and we will come up with different ideas to make the exercises in the gymnastic lessons more social, creative and fun!
