student Guided courses
We've tailored digital courses for each of our Interactive Adventures - these are the courses built with lobo. See our education page for details on curriculum integration and the difference between student guided and teacher directed courses.
SDGs + Lobo
By linking the Sustainable Development Goals to their exploration of Lobo, students truly get a picture of how global issues such as climate change, overfishing, habitat loss and plastic pollution look in “real life” and in communities they may not be familiar with.
Systems thinking in Lobo
An exciting opportunity to learn tools for Systems Thinking and then apply them to the issues found in Lobo - hands on and a must for students interested in making positive social change.
