What is GO?

Created in China more than 4,000 years ago, GO is regarded as one of the world’s most ancient art forms. For millennia, the game has been used to teach strategic thinking through collaboration. Just like in life, experienced players look at the whole board instead of local fights; the goal is not to win, but to play a quality game.

Benefits of GO

UNIVERSITIES

Used in all levels of formal and informal education, games have always been a natural way for humans to learn. GO, however, is unique in integrating left brain (analytic) and right brain (artistic) capabilities.
Here are some benefits that students and academics may gain from the game:

  • Pattern recognition
  • Logic
  • Knowledge representation
  • Concentration
  • Intuition

When linked to a specific unit outline, those benefits can translate into learning outcomes. In business and management subjects, for example, they enhance learning related to:

  • Managing leadership and leadership styles
  • Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility
  • Managing change and diversity
  • Change and innovation
  • Strategic thinking
  • Decision-making
  • Management in a global environment

SCHOOLS

GO complements standard school academic curricula, developing students thinking processes and enhancing their learning skills.
Here are a few benefits of the game in a school setting:

  • Curriculum enrichment to challenge gifted children
  • Hands-on learning experience
  • Respect and first-hand experience of multicultural traditions
  • Opportunities for “multiple intelligences” within a classroom
  • Learning math problem-solving from a pattern-recognition perspective
  • Patience and tolerance

“Studying GO is a wonderful way to develop both the creative as well as the logical abilities of children, because to play it both sides of the brain are necessary”.

Cho Chikun, among the world’s strongest players and one of the three great prodigies in GO history.
