My experience in my own SDG Exhibition that we did, which was SDG 4 Quality education, was enjoyable to say the least. I was able to experience a fun but exciting session with my fellow group mates and I had the pleasure to be able to participate in my own activity which was “Flip The Future”, in which the visitors would play a game where they would flip a card and if it matches, you’d get a point. The game would continue on until there’s no more card on the table then we’ll count who has the most points and wins the game. 

The visitor would have an enjoyable time visiting our booth, especially our game, because the point of our activity is to better understand SDG 4 Quality Education while playing. The visitors also pointed out that our booth was quite an entertaining one where the visitors would be fully engaged and immersed doing all sorts of activities. One particular visitor was so intense playing our game that we had to tell them to be silent and gentle in order to not disturb the other booth.

As far as I am aware, most of the visitors were quite vague and lenient about SDG in general. I fully understand that the visitors have an idea what SDG is but no actions were further taken from them to fully take the initiative and raise awareness towards it. If anything they’d just come to our booth out of curiosity.

It is very important for students to learn SDG through the subject of literature. As we speak, in order to fully capitalize SDG in our system the teachers should use literature as a medium to make the world a better living. By knowing the SDG then it could raise awareness towards a better future.

We can teach SDG in the classroom by implementing them through our teachings, such as through a comic, a scenario and many more. For example, the book “The Little Match Girl” shows a poor little girl selling matches for a living, in this sense we could teach them through SDG by showing the harshness of living in poverty, therefore training these students.
