Description

Classrooms will be revolutionized by small smartphone-sized devices, small computers that can take many forms to meet various needs of a teacher. One day these devices will be inside classrooms transforming the educational experience;

This talk will discuss the processes of gamification (and what is gamification) used to build a Quiz and teach varied things. Knowing the prototyping and the source code (using Python3 and a Raspberry Pi 3) required for the application. Demonstration of the portable server working and a study case of the application in one technical school of Brazil (ETEC – Jaboticabal – São Paulo).

Agenda

Introduction to Gamification - 5 minutes
Hands on - gamification processes - 10 minutes
Building the portable server using Raspberry Pi 3 – 15 to 20 minutes
Testing and playing – 10 minutes
Participants

Who can participate? Anyone who has interest in gamification applied to teach and learning; People who know (or want to know) the basics of Python and what is a Raspberry Pi;

If we have a small group (10 to 15), we can focus on experimentation and using the MozQuest to do a trial on gamification processes. If we have a bigger group (20 to 45), we can demonstrate the project and all the things we use to build it, later people can interact with the project and make questions.

Outcome

Volunteers to help and expand the project (initially called “MozQuest”)
Replicate this project in other communities and areas (for Mozilla Clubs for example)
People talking and discussing ideas about gamification and how this can help improving the teach process all over the world;

tentative fit for garage zone

also tentative fit for classroom in demystify the web space

Currently we are using a very simple version of "MozQuest" in JabukaMoz (Jaboticabal Mozilla Club). This is helping us to design and test better! :smile:

@thornet think this is better placed with you :)

Thanks for another good submission Felipe! As I said in the other proposal, we're not selecting this for the Dilemmas zone as we can only accept a small number of proposals, and are focusing on experiences which explore the problems and hard choices that come along with IoT: https://mozillafestival.org/spaces-and-sessions#a-tale-of-two-cities:-dilemmas-in-connected-spaces

I'd love to see this as teachable activity on the learning site, would be very cool way to spread the ideas much farther: https://learning.mozilla.org/en-US/activities

Thanks @autonome! How can i submit content to these teaching activities?
