Results: DigiFinEdu foresees the realization of three main Results (R):
– R1: DigiFinEdu Methodological Material. This result will consist of an eBook providing a thorough account of the current context on FinLit education at national and transnational level and an innovative FinLit teaching practice for teachers and parents.
– R2: DigiFinEdu Didactical Material and Testing. R2 will include at least 10 modules with lesson plans, material and instructions for teachers, parents and students. The goal is to provide ready-made teaching material that can be implemented immediately into school and at home. This result will also be tested throughout project period.
– R3: DigiFinEdu Visual Novel. R3 will be dedicated to the creation of an educational videogame on FinLit, combining digital storytelling and gamification methodologies. The game will be developed as a “Visual Novel” with decision making and interactive elements.
