"This year we have even involved the coaches at the Phyrtual Innovation Gym in the Hour of Code. The coaches will hold 30 labs in our Experience Centre, together with the Coding Girls trained by the programme promoted together with the American Embassy in Rome and Microsoft.

 

This is a highly qualified group of young coaches that know how to attract the interest of new generations in scientific subjects and the conscientious use of new technology,” explains Mirta Michilli, Director General of the Fondazione Mondo Digitale. "Together with the coordinating teachers, our coaches will help school to play a central role with the help of games and gamification and reduce the gap with the working world.”

 

Who are the coaches at the Phyrtual Innovation Gym? Today, we present Riccardo D'Aquino (20), former student at the Rome Pacinotti-Archimede School and coach at the Robotics Centre. Riccardo has successfully competed in various international robotics comepetitions. However, he is not only enthusiastic about technology, he also loves theatre and acting.

 

 

Over 3000 students in primary school and secondary school, as well as at the Rome Phyrtual Innovation Gym will have participate in coding labs organised by Microsoft and the Fondazione Mondo Digitale in collaboration with De Agostini for the global Hour of Code Campaign in Rome, Asti, Bari, Catania, Milan, Naples and Pordenone [see Press Release].
