What they all have in common, however, are innovative approaches based on interdisciplinary collaboration, a practical focus, transparency and sustainability. The projects will receive between CHF 100,000 and 300,000 each from the DIZH special credit.
The five approved projects with ZHdK involvement include Digital Interfacing: The Minimalist Manifesto, which shows schools ways in which they can shape digital change using existing resources, and Computer Science and Computer Music in Schools, which builds a bridge between computational thinking and musical-compositional thinking.
