The mobility offered a motivational learning experience which resulted in a computer game called The adventures of the mine elf Perkmandeljc. The main objective was to create a computer game based on the cultural heritage of Zasavje using programming tool Unity, creating and manipulating objects in a scene, using cameras and lights, importing and using 3D models,... Other objectives were working in unknown environment, personal development and social competences.
There is no education in the field of computer development in Slovenia. Moreover, there is no secondary school programme for computer game development. That is why, we have decided for the intership in the company V-ART in Seville, Spain, since it is one of the leading in this area. The ten participants have been chosen from second, third and fourth year of the programme computer technicians. The process involved: motivation letter and the script for the computer game on the topic of cultural heritage of Zasavje. The preparation included: geografical and historical workshops and lectures, interviews with former miners, interview with the artist from Trbovlje who is the creator of the image of the mine elf Perkmandeljc, visits to museums in Trbovlje and Kisovec, language preparation,... The mobility project is called The Adventures of the mine elf Perkmandeljc. The main objective was to create a computer game based on the cultural heritage of Zasavje using programming tool Unity, creating and manipulating objects in a scene, using cameras and lights, importing and using 3D models,...Other objectives were working in unknown environment, personal development and social competences. The results have been and will be disseminated in two phases: during the preparation and mobility and after the mobility. The target groups are: participants, students of our school, primary school pupils, parents, teachers, visitors to festivals, conferences, media, museums, libraries, companies and other public. The results have been and will be published on our web page and FB page, presentations at conferences, festivals, press conference, local newspapers, museums... The computer game The adventures of the mine elf Perkmandeljc will be available for wider audience and all age groups. It will be free to use and try in libraries in Zasavje, museums in Zasavje, in the Museum of mining in Trbovlje called 4.Dritl, which is visited by 5000 people annually and will thus surpass the duration of mobility. The project has made our school more competitive in Slovenia, improved the educational process, offered the participants specific educational situations, and has certainly put Zasavje and Slovenia on the map of game development.
