This transition, essential to preserving our resources and meeting climate challenges, concerns all players in society, from farmers to consumers. But how can we anticipate and support this change effectively and collectively?<\/p>\n<h2>Communicating agro-ecological knowledge through a video game<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3611\" src=\"https:\/\/gamabilis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Roots_1500x500_02_A2_phrase02-768x256-1-300x100.png\" alt=\"Sc\u00e9nario Roots Of Tomorrow sur l'agro\u00e9cologie\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gamabilis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Roots_1500x500_02_A2_phrase02-768x256-1-300x100.png 300w, https:\/\/gamabilis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Roots_1500x500_02_A2_phrase02-768x256-1.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-shrink-0 flex flex-col relative items-end\">\n<div class=\"pt-0\">\n<div class=\"gizmo-bot-avatar flex h-8 w-8 items-center justify-center overflow-hidden rounded-full\">\n<div class=\"relative p-1 rounded-sm flex items-center justify-center bg-token-main-surface-primary text-token-text-primary h-8 w-8\">At Gamabilis, we firmly believe that change requires raising awareness among both the <strong>general public and those involved in agriculture<\/strong>. With this in mind, we developed <a href=\"https:\/\/gamabilis.com\/en\/jeux\/roots-of-tomorrow-en\/\"><em>Roots of Tomorrow: inventing tomorrow&#8217;s agriculture<\/em>.<\/a><\/div>\n<div>This strategy video game, which is accessible to all <a href=\"https:\/\/freeappsforme.com\/roots-of-tomorrow-game-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">(you can read its <em>game review<\/em> here)<\/a>, has two distinct levels: the first, designed for the general public, offers an accessible and simplified approach, while the second, more educational and technical, is aimed specifically at professionals in the agricultural sector.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Video games, a rich and captivating medium<\/h2>\n<p>Many teachers are already incorporating games into their teaching practices (board games, role-playing, etc.) to make lessons more interactive, encourage learning, learn from mistakes and put themselves in the shoes of a character. This approach helps them better grasp the challenges they may encounter and the decisions they need to make. The aim is also to <strong>strengthen interaction<\/strong> between students while offering an <strong>engaging and stimulating learning method.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What else will <em>Roots of Tomorrow<\/em> bring? A strategy game that challenges players to make <strong>realistic, scientific decisions<\/strong>, centered on the management of a French farm. It offers practical situations rarely encountered in other games. Key concepts such as <strong>autonomy, adaptation to change, optimization, resilience and efficiency<\/strong> can be explored.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Le jeu Roots of tomorrow\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ea3QfpbkF1w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>Replay video of the March 29 webinar hosted by Philippe Pr\u00e9vost and featuring Vincent P\u00e9quignot (Gamabilis) and Philippe Jeanneaux (Vetagro Sup)<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Video games as an aid to agricultural education<\/h2>\n<p>The version dedicated to education is aimed primarily at establishments offering training in agriculture and agronomy, such as high schools, higher education establishments and continuing education.<\/p>\n<p>It takes the form of a website enabling the organizer to <strong>create a game adapted to the course format<\/strong>, with options such as choice of scenario, management of difficulty and duration of turns, etc. The game can be analyzed in real time and afterwards. Statistics generated by the students&#8217; games can be analyzed in real time and after the game.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the experience, the organizer has the opportunity to discuss with the students, in particular to review the strategic choices made during the game.<\/p>\n<p>It is also possible to<strong>extract the statistical data<\/strong> and present them to the students, using them as a basis for discussion.<\/p>\n<h2>An impact study on Roots of Tomorrow in education<\/h2>\n<p>Following the release of the game and its deployment, we plan to carry out an <strong>impact analysis study<\/strong> as part of <a href=\"https:\/\/gamabilis.com\/rd\/\">an anthropology thesis<\/a> we are funding.
