Discovering Life Planning Through Game-Based Learning
BroadMind Corporation, known for its innovative approach to financial services, has embarked on a unique educational initiative aimed at empowering high school students with essential financial knowledge. In an online session held on October 27, 2025, they introduced their financial education card game to 78 second-year students from Fukuoka Arts High School. With a mission to "unlock the power of finance," BroadMind aims to support students in visualizing their life plans and understanding how to navigate their future effectively.
Overview of the Educational Program
The session titled "Life Produce: Strategies for Achieving Your Ideal Life" was designed to engage students in a simulated life experience through a specially crafted card game. This program is not just about learning to earn money; rather, it emphasizes the significance of planning and preparing for future aspirations while managing limited money and time. The game encourages students to think creatively about achieving their dreams without losing sight of financial realities.
BroadMind has previously reached over 2,000 students across Japan with this educational initiative since its launch in September 2024. The target audience for this invaluable experience includes elementary school seniors, middle school, and high school students, making it a versatile tool for various educational settings such as career guidance and financial literacy classes.
