Technoscapes — The Game of Breaking the Digital Divide
Design Objective:
The Digital Divide, or the digital split, is a social issue referring to the differing amount of information between those who have access to the Internet and those who do not have access. The term became popular among concerned parties, such as scholars, policy makers and advocacy groups. The objective here was to create a deliverable that would be an educational tool about the subject.
I chose to create an educational game as my deliverable. There is something about sitting down together and playing while learning that appeals to me and particularly why I enjoy teaching. Teaching should be fun.
