Pedagogical Use Description | The authors designed this game to teach plant community dynamics because a game with dynamic rules is an effective way to teach a dynamic subject. Students can easily learn complicated sets of rules in order to play a fun game, and the game allows students to watch community dynamics that would take many years to observe in nature within a single class period. Unlike other lessons that are limited to regional examples of succession, this game can be played anywhere in the world. At the end of the game, students report on the results and discuss with the class what they have learned. To apply their new knowledge, students predict changes in the community and attempt to make the community change in specific ways. |
