Description:
CityQuest is the new didactic-game application proposed and
tested during the ScienzAperta2016 event at the inauguration of
the new part of the Geophysical Museum of Rocca di Papa. The
application executed on the tablet offers a new version 2.0 of Treasure
Hunt game. The educational path takes place across scientificdissemination
exhibits and educational games of geophysical
interest to explore and deepen the topics of Treasure Hunt. The
Treasure Hunt is performed inside the museum building: the game
session starts with a short explanation, then a set of provided
clues is given to easily reach the desired goal; after that, reading a
Qr code allows hunting to advance to the treasure. The CityQuest
application takes into account the time taken to complete the game,
the number of correct answers, and the number of clues used. The
Treasure Hunt 2.0 can be inserted inside a constantly open process
to seek new learning situations and relationships that permit both
insertion and integration. The emotional and cognitive involvement
of the group fits perfectly within the new ways of learning: students,
in small groups, face off in a collaborative way, responsible and
united the study and receive feedback, based on the results obtained
by the group itself. Achieving a goal, “The Treasure”, facilitates a
cooperative attitude, rather than competitive, and thus facilitates
the relationships between students with or without Specific Learning
Disabilities or Disorder (SLD).
