Duration
4 hours
Students
Ages 8–12

We used a Mobile MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) to practise clear communication. I guided students through gameplay and team missions, then asked them to reflect on how they listened, made decisions together and responded when things went wrong.

A simple way to make a useful call

  1. What

    What is happening?

  2. Where

    Where is it happening?

  3. Action

    What should we do next?

Putting it into practice

Students were challenged to make three useful callouts, help a teammate escape and offer encouragement after a mistake. Everyone was encouraged to contribute.

“I was encouraged by how engaged the students were and how openly they reflected on what they could improve.”

My reflection on the session

Thank you to the PIBG and teachers for making this learning experience possible.

Backgrounds
Across courses

I teach TAR UMT’s esports co-curricular programme to students across courses. I use esports to prepare them for working life, with a focus on communication, teamwork, critical thinking and presentation.

Exploring events, broadcast, team support and business helps them consider how their course skills could fit into careers beyond playing.

Thinking beyond the match

Students choose a recent esports issue, attach a source and write their own response. They also record practice goals and reflect on what they learned and how to develop their skills.

Explaining their ideas

Group presentations and team practice give students opportunities to explain decisions, listen to other perspectives and take responsibility for their contribution.
