Design Challenge

The most significant challenge was coming out with an idea that matches the original hardware equipments on such devices as Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. Another challenge is to express our perspectives via methods of visual communication and digital technology. However, the design team made it eventually and all the efforts worth.

Research

In order to realize the effectiveness of our creative game, we randomly selected a whole class to be the intervention group and another class to be the control group at school. A pre-test questionnaire (before the course) was carried out in two group, followed by two weeks training and bullying prevention game-based learning by conducting flipped classroom for the intervention group. The education project was run by a single dedicated instructor to avoid any variability in project effects between different instructors. The short-term and long-term effects of the “Zero-bully Campus” project was assessed by two post-intervention assessments in both the intervention and control groups. Besides, the control group in our study was offered the same intervention course after the completion of the one-month post-test questionnaire assessment, because of the ethical issues of intervention studies,
