The Cultural Battle

THE STRUGGLE FOR WISDOM HAS BEGUN

This game was created with the following goals:

  • Increase knowledge of the history on which the festivities are based.
  • Promote camaraderie and sportsmanship among the Festival Community and the Troops and Legions through gameplay.

    The Cultural Battle Editio Scholaris

    ARE YOU READY FOR THE CHALLENGE?

    The Federation of Troops and Legions aims to foster the festive spirit by offering teachers the opportunity to give practical meaning to their teaching work through a project aimed at Primary and Secondary Education students in the Campo de Cartagena region. In a contest format, the Cultural Battle uses gamification to enhance student learning through play.

    The basic objectives of this project are:

    • Encourage student participation in cultural and educational activities related to the Festivities.
    • Enhance knowledge of the history underlying the events we commemorate during the Second Punic War, especially regarding the Carthaginian and Roman civilizations and other influences of the era.
    • Familiarize students from an early age with the cultural and artistic expressions of their environment or city.
    • Improve the atmosphere and sportsmanship among students through gameplay.

    The project will be developed in three phases:

    1. Student Training: In this phase, the Federation will provide the responsible teachers at each educational center with the content and materials for sixth-grade primary and first-year secondary students to work on. A qualifying round will be held at each educational center in a contest format with questions and answers based on the content covered, resulting in ten semifinalists.
    2. Visit from Festival Participants in Period Costumes: Each school and institute will receive a visit from festival participants dressed in period attire, performing a theatrical representation and conducting a contest trial of the Cultural Battle among the ten semifinalists, leading to three finalists from each educational center.
    3. Final of the Cultural Battle Contest: This will take place in an emblematic space in Cartagena, featuring a festive representation in a period atmosphere.

    The Federation will supply all necessary contest materials so that the responsible teacher at their educational center can easily transfer them to the students. Additionally, prizes will be provided for all participants in the second and third phases.

    This is a long-term project intended to have annual continuity, gradually increasing the number of registered schools and institutes. Participation grants the educational center the advantage of subscription rights, ensuring their registration in the following academic year if desired.
