Rationale
The emergency we have chosen to
create an app for is a house fire. The aim of the app is to educate primary
school children (6-12 years), how to be prepared before and during a house
fire. We have created five games to be played consecutively in the order of
real life occurrences. We decided that teaching children through educational
games would be the best way, so that they don’t lose interest. Children are
much more likely to retain information if they don’t realise they are learning.
We chose to use cartoon illustrations, as they are playful and not too
frightening. They will also appeal better to this age group. We used just
enough text to be educational but not enough to be off-putting.
