iTech is a european cooperation project that aims to bring innovation in the field of youth work. The initiative is lead by Digijeunes, in partnership with Burgas Free University (Bulgaria), Fablab Pau (France), Asociatia Young Initiative (Romania), and Combustible Numérique (France). OBJECTIVESOver a period of 18 months the project cosortium produced a set of open educational resources on the topic of media and digital science. The project’s deliverables are expected to facilitate the implementation of educational digital science workshops across Europe, thus contributing to improving digital literacy among youth and challenging the digital divide. RESULTSWe have produced a number of tutorials and physical objects to enable youth workers across Europe to launch their own hands-on workshops on media and digital science.Our educational resources rely exclusively on free and open source hardware/software, and are dvided into 4 modules :- Coding and electronic prototyping- Connected objects- Social networking- Extra ressources for youth practitionersThe complete set of outputs is available on :http://www.digijeunes.com/projets/itech/as well as on Instructables.com : just type « Digijeunes » in the search barCOMMUNICATIONOur communication campaign covered all participating organizations’ countries, thus reacing several hundreds youth practictioners and young people across France, Romania and Bulgaria.The iTech team was notably involved in a number of public events on maker and digital culture such as the Toulouse Mini Maker Faire, the Bucharest Bookfest or the NASA international Space Apps in Burgas. Our disemination efforts culminated with a multiplier event, which took place in Burgas on 25/02/2019, and which gathered over 80 people from local educational institutions, instructional environments, and NGOs.If you’d like to comment on our work or get in touch with the iTech team don’t hesitate to contact us at : info@digijeunes.comYou can also gain further insights into our communicatio efforts by searching for #iTech on social networks, or by visiting the project’s facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/ITechproject2017/
