To fill this gap, our team of nutrition, education and computer scientists worked to research and develop Foodbot Factory. Foodbot Factory is a mobile “serious game” (i.e., a video game designed for educational purposes) that supports children in Grade 4 and 5 in learning about nutrition and Canada’s Food Guide. Using the ORBIT model stages of intervention development, we first iteratively developed and tested prototypes of the app among children using quantitative and qualitative feedback from children. Next, we tested a full version of the app among a larger group of children in a pilot study and found that Foodbot Factory significantly improved children’s nutrition knowledge. Now, our team aims to understand how Foodbot Factory can support teachers and children in the classroom by integrating Fodbot Factory into the classroom as part of a series of nutrition lesson plans. Please see our Foodbot Factory page for details about our research and for information on how to access Foodbot Factory. This research has been funded by the Ontario Research Fund – Research Excellence program.
