Yesterday, in the prestigious and historical Convitto Cicognini, 55 students, coordinated by Prof Maria Rodighiero, participated in the course, which was organized in various phases.
During the first hour in the school’s main lecture hall, Fiammetta Castagnini illustrated the project objectives, while Manrico Diamantini, MSP Team Leader, showed some of the work tools, such as Channel 9 and Virtual Academy. Students then moved to the labs, divided in two teams, to start a brain storming session.
Fiammetta Castagnini used a smartphone to film to brief interviews from two points of view: that of a teacher and that of a student, Elvira.
Project Future ReCoded (March 2016 - February 2017), financed by Microsoft YouthSpark and Fondazione Cariplo, and coordinated by the Fondazione Filarete, aims to provide greater professional opportunities for thousands of Italian students through the practice and development of digital and technological skills.
