Free offer for a school class from the 8th grade under the direction of Anne Klein (Cultures interactives)

In this interactive workshop, pupils slip into the role of game developers. Using selected video games, they reflect on social narratives and develop their own ideas for the games of tomorrow. Teams will discuss what games can do - and what they should do. The focus is on diversity, inclusion and storytelling. The results are incorporated into creative portfolios, which are then presented in a simulated talk show. A third team of observers decides who is the winner.

A playful space for thinking about the future of digital worlds that combines game analysis with discussion and methods of media education - and thus makes gaming a door opener for a reflective examination of social processes, including a critical look at right-wing trends in the digital space.
