DIGITAL EDUCATION GAME
Digitization is everywhere in the world as a must of the technology age. Education is no exception. It is now possible to make the education more accessible with digital educational games, especially in the field of Mathematics and Science, and to break down the ongoing misconception about the difficulty in these fields. KOD Awards aims to contribute both to the education system by encouraging the work done on this field and encouraging people and institutions to work in this field.
DIGITAL EDUCATION GAME IDEA
It is possible to participate in the KOD Awards Competition with ideas that will create added value for Mathematics and / or Science in the field of digital education. Your idea that is applicable technically and content wise will be evaluated under the Idea Awards category, if you apply with a document that will describe all the details.
