ChangeBusters

An interactive game set designed to help professionals working within the higher education industry to explore the concept of a Theory of Change.

Working in partnership with the STEER/SETL department of Sheffield Hallam University and the higher education organisation AdvanceHE, a board-game style activity was designed.

 

The game-set included a set of designed game pieces, plus five black pieces for users to add their own ideas. The game-set also included an instructions booklet, four scenario cards and a project team card.

Upon completion of the project, the clients further commissioned additional game-sets, and the creation of two new game piece packs to act as expansions upon the original game.

Project Date: April-December 2022

Clients: Sheffield Hallam University, AdvanceHE.
