MAPPING EDUCATION

Developing an educational game is like embarking on a journey. And in any self-respecting journey there is always a map to consult. Our map is the Educational Values Chart, an invaluable tool for parents and teachers, with which we analytically describe the areas of intelligence development, indicating the educational potential contained in each game by highlighting the areas of experience of greatest development. Innovation in researching teaching methods has never stopped and is still the real driving force behind every game today. Besides the proprietary Tabella, we experiment with various methods and educational approaches, such as the Montessori Method, the depth psychology of C. G. Jung, and the ten Life Skills developed by the World Health Organization.
