Online Games and Simulators for Sexual Education
The first
website is: http://sexetc.org/fun/condom-game/
The above
website is an online puzzle game for the application of condoms. In this game,
players will sort out the stages in which they are supposed to check for birth
control appropriate directions.
This website
helps learners get an idea of the proper ways to use the birth control
technique. Players will be able to understand what to look for, how to use, and
the right way to get rid of the birth control.
This
application will be used in two ways. The first one, I will have my learners
play this application while learning my course. Afterwards, each person is
supposed to write a rationale of why they had to sort the eight steps of using
the birth control in the way they thought it should be. Another way that I
would use this application is to help my learners introduce this application to
their classroom (my learners are either adult learners or educators who teach
teenagers).
The second
website is:
This game is
an online question and answer game introducing general knowledge about sexual
problems. With pictures attached to the game, Issues that are addressed in a
true/False format: SDTs, preventive measures, and other educational information.
I chose this
application because it introduces learners to a wide variety of ideas about
sexual diseases and birth control methods. It also provides learners with
information about each question that they get right or wrong.
This website
will be used towards the end of my course. It helps learners get a rehearsal of
some of the topics that we went over during the course.
There seem to be games for everything! Even one that instructs on how to use condoms correctly? Wow!
ReplyDeleteIt is actually strange to me as well. I had to look hard to find such games. I have never used them in my lessons neither.
DeleteI think that a game that provides learners with information about sex is quite useful, especially for teenagers. I remember my days in secondary school (Catholic all girl school) when we had "Family Life" class. The teacher did not provide us with a lot of useful information. I know that most of us learned about sex from our peers, movies and romance novels!
