While the ultimate goal for Jobs That Care Game is to attract more young people into health and social care careers, the game is not just a careers tool. By playing Jobs That Care Game students will learn about the size and structure of the NHS and social care and it will also help them understand how diverse the range of jobs and careers is.
This active learning experience encourage players to use higher thinking skills while making the learning process fun and stress-free which may improve knowledge retention (Akl et al 2013). Using collaborative games can also improve communication, team working (Akl et al 2013) and relationships.
The game encourages players to discuss the answers to questions, allowing them to acquire new knowledge, share experiences and learn from each other.
How the game works
The game is played in 3 or 4 teams. Each team should ideally have at least 2 players. The game can also be played by 3 or 4 individual players. A game session should last approximately 45 minutes – this allows time for the rules to be explained, 30-35 minutes of gameplay and a wrap up at the end.
A facilitator is not required for each game, and teaching staff can take a “hands-off” approach by moving between groups to support discussions and answer any questions.
