Multiplier event in Italy
On the 11th of April 2023, the multiplier event was held at the Istituto Tecnico Superiore per la Logistica 4.0 e la Smart Mobility in Bologna.
The people present were 14 and they were all students of the institute, this gave the opportunity to experience directly with the end users of the SUSMILE Project, the effectiveness of the tools developed by the partners during the project.
In the first part of the event, the tools created within the SUSMILE project (MOOC and serious game) were presented, to receive direct feedback from students. In the second part, the students used the serious game directly, playing at all levels divided into groups, in order to encourage collaboration between them.
The overall evaluation of the tools created within the project was very positive, as described in detail in the event report. The serious game has been the tool most appreciated by students, who have found in the software a high potential to facilitate learning and consolidate more quickly the concepts studied, whether students’ study directly the capsules of SUSMILE, or for students who attend technical courses that however find in the serious game an excellent ally to study with greater efficiency.
The SUSMILE project has therefore found a strong interest from students who said they were interested in deepening the developments of the project in the future and taking advantage of the tools created to improve their level of learning.
Finally, a recurring comment among students, is that they appreciate the fact that a highly functional tool like the serious game has been created, but that manages to be both fun and very appealing, making it less difficult for students to concentrate on studying.
