Students will present and realize the games together with their colleagues considering the age of the children, youth, adults, seniors etc. Students choose their target group. At the very end of the seminar there will be a short feedback reflecting the games presentation, where students explain their intentions and points of view. Subsequently they submit their paper 1 – game activities and their methodology. They will apply the methodology to the concept of education considering the particular topic + they will rework it according to the feedback recommendations.
