Kids and teens are the best companions and users of video games, it is also fair to give them the opportunity to have fun, create, and live an unforgettable time to share with other small but great developers around the world.
If you want to help children and teenagers learn coding and computational thinking, enhance core skills such as teamwork, if you think kids can become creative actors in using the technology at their disposal and not just passive video game users
Join and become a protagonist..
The global success of KGJ also depends on you!
The KGJ Ambassador is the main link between KGJ and local realities and should
- Spread the jam philosophy
- Identify and implement the actions needed to promote the KGJ at the local schools
- Encourage schools and Dojos to sign up and organize an event
- Facilitate and support the organization of events, locating and assisting in particular the schools of its area of reference
- Look for local partners and sponsors
- Ensure respect for the rules and the spirit of the KGJ
- Keep contacts and relationships with organizers and other ambassadors around the world

two boys who are technology enthusiast and very curious, they were the push to undertake the fantastic
experience of CoderDojo and KidsGameJam. I love the idea of kids learning to create their video games and
not just be passive users of technology. They will be the coders of tomorrow.

Attualmente mi occupo dell’innovazione didattica attraverso l’uso delle tecnologie digitali. Credo che introdurre i bambini alle basi della programmazione aiuti a sviluppare la loro capacità di risolvere i problemi in modo creativo e le loro competenze logiche.
Angela Gatti
Ambassador
Ho trasformato la mia classe in un laboratorio di scrittura , di lettura, di arte, di manualità, per far acquisire le competenze ,imparando facendo.. La classe è diventata un laboratorio digitale con una duplice valenza : sia nel senso che si usano le tecnologie digitali, sia che si usano le dita della mano ,per fare, creare, un laboratorio attivo, dunque, un piccolo Atelier creativo, cioè uno spazio e un tempo intenzionalmente e opportunamente potenziato ,per sperimentare in maniera efficace le varie attività didattiche.
Da qualche tempo ho introdotto ,in maniera trasversale a tutte le discipline, il coding con Scratch e la robotica educativa , per l’avvio al pensiero computazionale e ci stiamo approcciando alla stampa 3D, affinchè anche l’immaginazione si trasformi in realtà, una realtà non più ferma alla carta e la matita, ma aumentata dalle potenzialità che la tecnologia ci offre.
