Project Objective

The primary objective of the project is to produce an educational entertainment video game that teaches elementary school aged children the concept and processes of the Zero Waste approach.

The secondary objectives are the following:

1. To create an interactive, learning experience of Zero Waste concepts and processes that is usable by both family members or other adults teaching children or children themselves doing these.
2. To provide an engaging user experience that is tailored to the attentional and motivational needs of the children, making the experience more effective in teaching and in evoking transference from concepts to actions in their daily lives.
3. To provide interactive, gamified Zero Waste processes that are safe, virtual, and representative of daily scenarios, as due to the current pandemic, children are not allowed to head out and participate in outdoor learning activities on waste management.
