The primary focus of this exciting educational tool is to focus on the restrictive influence stereotyping can have upon individuals’ career opportunities and choices.

Geri 'n' Geri Encounter Humankind is an online interactive learning resource, created to engage young people with the subject of occupational stereotyping through the use of fun, memorable and thought-provoking activities.

Geri ‘n’ Geri are two aliens who have crash landed on earth. Their mission: to explore human life whilst collecting parts to repair their damaged spaceship.

To succeed in their mission they must use their Morph-o-Matic machine to change into human form and find the jobs that will help them fix their spaceship – of course being from outer space they have no concept of occupational stereotypes. So, the aliens begin interacting with humans, negotiating their way through job interviews and tackling work based prejudices and stereotypes.

The Geri‘n’Geri adventure game provides a challenging learning environment for young people, tackling the following objectives:

• What is stereotyping?
• What are the social and legal aspects of discrimination?
• How does stereotyping affect career and learning choices?
• How can we challenge stereotypes?

Geri ‘n’ Geri also explores the issue of equal opportunity in the workplace and considers the range of career opportunities available to young people, according to their skills and interests.

Pre and post evaluation quizzes gauge users perceptions before and after completing the modules. Results can be used by teachers to evaluate student performance.
