Digital game design as a complex learning activity for developing the 4Cs skills: Communication, Collaboration, Creativity and Critical thinking.
This document discusses digital game design as a complex learning activity that enhances the 4Cs skills: communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. Presented by Margarida Romero at the Gala 2015 conference, it emphasizes the importance of co-creative playful learning and intergenerational game design workshops. It also highlights the pedagogical use of technology in promoting knowledge co-creation rather than passive consumption.

From digital consumption to knowledge co-creation A B Participatory co-creation of knowledge Passive consumption Interactive consumption Individual content creation Content co-creation Is not about the technology (nor its intentions) but about its actual pedagogical use. We should differentiate different levels of pedagogical uses of technologies ranging from passive consumption (e.g. video tutorial), to interactive consumption (e.g. basic multiplication game), individual content (co)creation (e.g. creating a game based on a template) and participatory co-creation of knowledge (e.g. co-creating a game with Scratch).
