Abstract
In light of COVID-19, we created a novel simulation game, to explain exponential growth in disease spread. The simulation game is an open educational ressource (OER) for children to reflect on how test and isolation can be applied to stop contagious diseases. The game was reviewed in three classrooms (P3-P5) by a primary school teacher to pilot the applicability of the game in an educational setting. Based on qualitative feedback from pupils, we developed accompanying exercise sheets and website in close collaboration with the teacher.
