Year 13 Philosophy students were asked to make a board game or mechanism made of junk around the house to explain the ethical theory of Virtue Ethics.

The added challenge was that they had to work on it in pairs, remotely! 
They may not look pretty but the symbolism behind each thing e.g. coins, lights, pots of gold etc. was superbly explained and the boys had really thought about it. Edson Dibble and Archie Brown created ‘challenge cards’ in their board game with moral dilemmas on so the ‘moral agent’ (a decorated beer bottle!) was challenged and tested as it went round the board on its way to the end goal (eudaimonia, for Aristotle!). It was great fun to break up the usual method of online learning by playing the games online with the whole class.
