Reeves <<a href="mailto:treeves@uga.edu">treeves@uga.edu</a>> Date: Tue, Apr 7, 2009 at 7:06 PM Subject: Interactive Learning Activities/Experiences for Young Children - C4C Design Competition - Entries due April 30, 2009 To: <a href="mailto:ITFORUM@listserv.uga.edu">ITFORUM@listserv.uga.edu</a> <div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> The Chamber of Commerce of Como will sponsor the C4C (Como for Children) Competition for Ideas at IDC 2009 ( <a href="http://www.idc09.polimi.it/c4c.html" target="_blank">http://www.idc09.polimi.it/c4c.html</a> ). The Competition addresses interaction design in the context of pre-schools, and is part of a wider project of the Chamber of Commerce wishing to promote a strong innovation of the approach to education for young children. We look for (short) proposals considering either the vision of an interactive pre-school of the future, or the design of specific applications or installations or learning activities/experiences for children at pre-school. "Winners" will be offered free conference registration plus 2 nights in hotel in Como for 2 people and will present their proposals in a special plenary session on June 5th, followed by a special reception for all IDC09 participants in the wonderful Villa Grumello (<a href="http://www.villadelgrumello.it" target="_blank">www.villadelgrumello.it</a>), kindly offered by the Chamber of Commerce. Last but not least, the authors of the best proposals will have the chance to have a true impact in the "real world", by cooperating with the Chamber of Commerce in the joint development and implementation of their ideas in the context of the C4C project. We look forward to your proposals!
