Visual support and participatory lessons enable deep learning
The board game "Upperland" is a completely new educational tool set in a theme park familiar to students.

This highly effective learning experience can be realized without any prior preparation on the part of teachers .
Today, the theme park is a place of learning, so it's fun and I can't help but get absorbed in it.

About the board game "Upperland"
story
A theme park that was once bustling with visitors
"Upperland" was a luggage business that had been steadily making profits, but now it is running at a loss... Meanwhile, talk has arisen about using the Upperland site for a different purpose.
At this rate, Upper Land will be gone in three years! An elite team, including you, has been tasked with making a V-shaped recovery for the land.
Protect the place that holds everyone's memories!!
Game Points
Because of the realistic setting, players can think about career perspectives and business management systems through the game.
Each employee will be responsible for a department that is essential for theme park operations, and will develop "decisiveness" and "a sense of responsibility."
Discussions with members are just like real-world meetings. Practice the "negotiation skills" you need in society.
By understanding the current situation and looking to the future, we can think about what is needed for theme park growth.
Develop "strategic thinking" and "logical thinking."
