International Women's Day
Game Design Competition
March 8th – 22nd 2026

In honour of International Women’s Day, GameChanger Girls Esports is hosting a new global digital game design competition. Gather a team or teams of girls (aged 10-15) and design a knockout esports game for girls. You don’t have to build the game, this is a competition to dream, imagine and design a game that girls about the globe will be excited to play (and compete over). We’ve got some fun prizes to share for the top 5 entries, and we promise to provide caring and quality feedback on each game design submitted. Because down the track you might build that game and enter it in one of our GCG tournament programs.
Brief: Design a game that girls your age about the globe will want to play.
Dates: Entries will be accepted from March 8th (International Women’s Day) to March 22nd
Teachers: Register at https://bit.ly/GameDesignComp and you will receive instructions and simple design template for your teams to record their fab esports game ideas.
Spread the word far and wide and let’s celebrate all that girls and games can be!




What interests me about choosing a college learning environment is how a broad idea becomes part of an ordinary day. The way a course is taught can affect whether a student feels comfortable asking for help. I would keep that thought nearby when looking for ideas about college study choices. I do not have a settled view yet, but this seems like a good place to slow down and look more closely. What would you ask about teaching and support before choosing a college?
The topic of using familiar characters in preschool learning gives me a few things to think about, especially when the discussion moves beyond general advice. A familiar character can make a new classroom routine feel easier to approach. I would use that point as a starting question when considering preschool storytelling activities. I would be interested in a simple example, because it is often the ordinary details that make an idea memorable. How can a story character support learning while leaving children room to create?
Considering developing a reflective approach to learning, I keep coming back to the difference between knowing about an idea and putting it into practice. Looking back at a task can reveal which part was difficult and which strategy helped. Seen this way, reflective learning habits becomes a topic to explore rather than something to sum up too quickly. I do not have a settled view yet, but this seems like a good place to slow down and look more closely. How can reflection remain practical rather than becoming another form to complete?
There is something approachable about discussing making online tutoring sessions effective through situations people can actually picture. A clear question before a session can help the learner use the available time well. It makes me curious about the practical side of online tutoring support. I would be interested in a simple example, because it is often the ordinary details that make an idea memorable. How would you check that a tutoring explanation has actually become understandable?
Considering sharing the everyday questions of parenthood, I keep coming back to the difference between knowing about an idea and putting it into practice. Small concerns can be easier to discuss when parents hear that others have similar questions. For me, that is a useful way into the broader subject of parenting support discussions. I am more curious about the process than a polished result, because the steps in between are usually where questions appear. What makes a parenting discussion feel helpful rather than competitive?
