Last week, we delivered a practical and engaging course on Gamification and Game-Based Learning (GBL) with a focus on ethical use of AI for lesson planning, material development and game creation. 🎮

By the end of the course, teachers had created classroom-ready gamified learning units and both traditional and digital educational games tailored to their class and subject. They also left with a clear plan for implementing both methodologies and using AI to support their teaching practices. 📝 🎲
