I am intending to investigate the value of playful learning for reducing climate anxiety in young people. I am particularly focused on cryosphere geography, and have based my project around Ice Flows, developed by Dr Anne Le Brocq, University of Exeter. I want to understand if playful learning can help develop the skills needed for proactively approaching climate change problems, especially through building climate resilience. I am also aware that playful learning needs to complement current UK secondary education, which prioritises written communication through examination. This balance will be key to my research.
