Education

We learn to navigate the digital world

 

MEET offers all schools visit and lab experiences ranging from immersive art to virtual worlds, from artificial intelligence to robotics, from data and media literacy to digital citizenship. MEET has the largest Italian catalog of digital works and content. The goal is to introduce people to digital experiences, generate reflection and critical sense about the potential and risks of digital, and develop creative skills for interaction.

Each experience is accompanied by one or more educators who will introduce pupils and teachers to experiment with technologies and languages to deeply understand the meaning and potential of digital transformation.

Here are the main experiences to be had:

MEET ROBOTICS (in partnership with Scuola di Robotica)

The relationship between humans and machines requires design, programming (coding) and problem solving skills. In the lab, people will work in groups to design the actions of robots and lead them to accomplish desired missions, employing creativity and computational thinking and imagining tackling the world’s major environmental, energy and social challenges. Lego’s EV3 MINDSTORM robotics kits and the School of Robotics working methodology will be used.
Participants: approximately 20

MEET OPEN THE BOX (in partnership con gli esperti di Open the Box)

A course that delves into the topic of media and data literacy to learn how to navigate the dangers of misinformation and key concepts of digital citizenship through direct interaction with students and ongoing teacher training. The project includes a half-day of lectures and immersive experiences at MEET in which students, students and faculty participate in an interactive workshop on memes, edited images, synthetic media, fake news, data-visualization, artificial intelligence and immersive narratives, with the goal of developing critical sense towards the information encountered online, questioning the major ethical challenges of digital and creating content in a more conscious way.

Teachers who wish to do so will later be able to explore these topics in the classroom, thanks to the materials accessible on the openthebox.io platform, and organize other digital literacy lessons completely independently or with the support of Open the Box experts. All classes will later be able to participate in the final challenge on data and media literacy, which will be organized in spring 2023.

Participants: approximately 70 and up
Duration: about 4h
Price per participant: €15
