Farm Injury and Safety Practices Among Rural Adolescents: A Qualitative Analysis to Support the Development of a Gamified Educational Resource
Farm injury is preventable, and opportunities exist to educate adolescents about farm injury prevention via fun and engaging materials delivered at school. Insights from students and teachers around preferred educational design and content have informed the development of the "Calm Your Farm" (www.calmfarm.education) online gamified educational resource and may also be helpful to others working to influence farm safety practices among a typically difficult to engage age group.
