Description:
The Press Start to Learn - Videogame literacy courses in schools project develops its activities between Reggio Emilia and Brescia and provides for a double cycle of meetings for the 2022/2023 school year: one lasting 18 hours dedicated to school students in secondary schools; one of 14 hours dedicated to teaching staff.
The goal is to promote a conscious use of the videogame medium - aimed at discovering its complexity and perspectives in the educational and cultural fields - and at the same time offer students some basic tools to create a videogame concept, with particular attention towards the story of the territory.
