TeenpodsProjecte d’Educació Transmèdia sobre el desenvolupament positiu adolescent

Resumen

An approach of Positive Youth Development (PYD) on education is key to contribute to the well-being of adolescents and for the consolidation of their identities, skills, and values. In order to promote the knowledge of PYD among education professionals, we present a study for the development of a Transmedia Education Project (TEP), which aims to facilitate the knowledge and autonomous training about APD on formal and non-formal education fields.Based on a design-based research methodology, the objectives of the study are to describe a TEP elaboration process and to generate principles for the design of TEPs that promote autonomous learning. Including 14 researchers, university professors, education professionals and audiovisual technicians take part in the project elaboration.On one hand, the project development has produced, the design of “Teenpods”, 12 pods allocated in the website of Chair in Education and Adolescence “Abel Martínez Oliva”. Each one comprises open educational multimedia resources on a specific topic related to the PYD. On the other hand, it has established 9 principles to guide the development of TEPs that promote autonomous learning. Following research will focus on analyzing the impact of Teenpods in the promotion of the APD and developing a complete transmedia educational object.
