Co-Designing Transmedia Games with Teachers and KIT Theatre

Presentation by the D.O.T.S. | Extended Realities Case Study Session | RIGA IFF 2021

Come and join the DOTS (www.dots.team), a secret agency that catches and fixes transmedia dreams (think Roald Dahl’s ‘The BFG’ for the digital age!). In this session Dr Angela Colvert (University of Roehampton) and Tom Bowtell (KIT Theatre) present a new game-framework for supporting children’s transmedia storytelling and gameplay across the curriculum. This emerged from a two-year research project, funded by the British Academy exploring the educational potential of co-design with teachers.
