TeaM CHALLENGE Internet games

 

 

 

 

The games are developed and managed by future Informatics teachers who are attending the classes of TeaM lab at ELTE University. The two semester course named „Telementoring” has the project deliverable for producing and managing the game.

Every year students attending the course sum up the experiences of past years and design a brand new game for the current year. Current games are always based on current issues into which their own personal professional ambitions and learned innovative technologies are blended and supported through mentoring participants.

TeaM Challenge 2006 “The sea of memories

This game is not a continuation of the previous, but has an original theme, structure and content, with an attempt to alter and renew the challenge series. Here the students are faced with items, photos and letters found in an old chest in the attic of a lonely house, which is introduced by a short story. They have to find out the keys to the mysterious items and connection between them, if there are any. They also have to write a short essay as continuation of the story explaining who the owner might be. http://njszt-kozokt.inf.elte.hu/kihivas/

 

TeaM Challenge 2005 “Get to know the world collaboratively through the Internetl

Similarly to the previous one, but mysterious puzzles had to be submitted by the children themselves and the emphasis was on collaborative work.  http://matchsz.inf.elte.hu/kihivas2005/

 

 

TeaM Challenge 2004 “Get to know the world through the Internetl

Similarly to the previous one, but here the scope was extended to the whole world and the emphasis was on developing creativity. http://matchsz.inf.elte.hu/kihivas2004/
