ZACUT: 3 Culturas

Zacut is a didactic APP, posed as a game, for schools

The activity can be performed simultaneously by a group divided up into six sub-groups identified with different colors. Similarly, selecting a single group, the activity can be done individually or with a single small group.

On the map you can see at all times the point where the student (in blue) and the destination (red) is. You can scroll the map using the controls up, down, right and left of the screen and zoom the map using the "+" and controls "-"

When you reach the destination point, a question opens and the ability to respond is given. All questions have several possible correct answers.

After entering one of the correct answers, progress towards the next stage is unlocked.

In each stage a word "key" is achieved. At the end of the tour they have won six keywords, which ordered correctly form a sentence. Uniting the sentences of all groups can compose a message in favor of tolerance.

It has designed a complementary teaching unit aimed at secondary school teachers that can be downloaded from the following link:
