Strengthening sustainability competences through playful multiliteracy method:Cases of arctic literacy and futures literacy
Play is a natural way of acting and exploring the world at all ages (Brown, 2009; Csíkszentmihályi, 1990). It is a voluntary, pleasure driven, and creative interaction with different instruments such as people, spaces, and environments (Van Vleet & Feeney, 2015). According to van Fleet and Feene...
