Stocked: An Educational Lab Safety Card Game
Laboratory safety is an important issue in academic settings. To address the challenge of effectively teaching lab safety, we developed an educational card game titled Stocked. This game incorporates gamification elements to enhance student engagement and familiarity with common laboratory safety items and equipment. This paper outlines the game’s development and preliminary evaluation. A survey was conducted to gain feedback from the players, and a SWOT analysis was performed. Players found Stocked to be a fun, fast-paced, and engaging game.
