On June 17, the workshop “Creating Board Games for Pedagogical and Communication Contexts” brought together more than a dozen teachers and future educators at FabLab Benfica, part of the Lisbon School of Education (ESELx) of the Polytechnic Institute of Lisbon (IPL).

This event was organized by the research project CoLab Games – Digital Platform for the Costumisation of Analogue Games, led by the School of Communication and Media Studies (ESCS-IPL) and LIACOM, in partnership with ESELx. The initiative focuses on creating analog games enhanced with digital content, to be used in educational settings involving communication, literacy, and citizenship.

The aim of the workshop was to test and promote the Pick Pick digital platform, developed within the CoLab Games project. The central theme of this session was media literacy, with participants exploring topics based on the Media Education Framework by the Directorate-General for Education.
