Showcase: Learning as a Game

November 14, at 7 PM, there is a Showcase: Learning as a Game as part of the public programme of the Interactive Playground exhibition by WRO Center for Media Art

The showcase format allows various alternative sites and institutions to present their projects and share their experiences with a broader audience. This time, the event is dedicated to the game - perhaps the most effective method of education. The game format activates creative thinking and engages everyone to active interaction. After the presentation, there's a question-answer session, where the audience will be able to ask their questions to the participants. The event is aimed at developing relationships in the field of education, sharing experience and knowledge, as well as promoting the spread of experimental gaming techniques in the educational system.
