Children's Game Design workshops with a Game Designer from Hub Games, Rory O'Connor. These 2 workshops (one AM and one PM) were held in the Learning Activity Room, Ulster Museum. Children ages 9-11 participated at this workshop where they learnt about environmental topics through the lens of game design, utilising playable game artefacts (cards, dice, topic cards, character cards, etc) to create environmentally-themed games that challenged environmental issues e.g., marine and beach plastic pollution,
