modules
about
Parallel to the digital games, English and (Mandarin) Chinese educational material will produced by our team of researchers in order to supplement key concepts presented in the games. Modules will be developed consisting more in-depth information and will be accessible in both paper and digital format (most likely in the form of ibook). The modules are flexible and can be arranged according to the preferences of the educator and their relevance to the subject being discussed in class.
The following is a list and a draft of modules that can be expected. These modules are themes that have emerged through research from all types of sources.

ANIMATIONS
Furthermore, animation videos of basic concepts related to water (i.e. how much is a ton of water, or how global warming affects water resources) will be made to support the modules. This is based on the observation that most young students nowadays prefer watching videos as opposed to reading texts. The animation videos will be incorporated in the iBooks.
