CULT.T Culture and Technology project

The CULT.T project aims to hybridise technological and artistic-cultural knowledge through a STEAM approach within European higher education institutions (HEIs) with a technical and technological profile. This initiative seeks to respond to the growing presence of digital technologies in the valorisation and use of cultural assets, by encouraging women with a humanities background to enter STEM fields of study and increasing their employment opportunities in a labour market marked by strong gender imbalances.

Description

Expected project results

A STEAM curriculum implemented within higher education programmes in Italy, Spain, France, Croatia, and Albania.

Microlearning modules and gamified scenarios to adapt students’ skills to digital culture.

An art-inspired teaching handbook to develop female students’ creative potential in designing game-based communication solutions for cultural assets.

A curriculum pilot involving 60 female students across 5 countries.

A hybrid mobility programme for 22 teachers/trainers for the in vitro testing of the handbook.
