Presentation CreativLab

Description
The CréativLab, an integral part of the Cité Méditerranéenne de l'Éducation (CiMEd), is part of Action 4 of the Ampiric project, winner in 2020 of the call for projects "Pilot teacher training and research centres for education"[1]. This is a space for cooperation in research and action dedicated to teachers, educationalists, researchers and companies. Coordinated by the ANRT, and through it, its working group on "Pedagogy through games", it benefits from the support and guidance of all Ampiric's partners. At the end of the ten years of the Ampiric project, the CréativLab aspires to become a place of innovation, training, research and exchange, open to the public.


Objectives
The objective of the CréativLab is threefold:

  • to co-produce, experiment and label educational resources that improve basic learning for trainers;
  • to create a public-private collective intelligence and contribute to the communities of practice developed within the framework of Ampiric;
  • to develop a French sector specialized in the production of educational tools.


How it works
The operation of the CréativLab is based on the following actions:

  • The initiation and support of collaborative projects. Each year, projects jointly led by company managers, researchers and school teachers are selected. These projects must meet the needs of teachers and serve not only basic learning but also the common base of knowledge and skills throughout life (from school to vocational training).
  • An evaluation of the resources produced or improved. The educational tools developed are intended to be evaluated in partner classes. These tests[2] take place :
  1. in an experimentation room installed in the CréativLab ;
  2. or directly in the schools.
  • The networking of actors, between the field, training, research and entrepreneurship. Various events are organized such as conferences, seminars, forums, hackathons, etc. in Marseille, Avignon, Nice or Paris, and even abroad.
