boredomresearch will be using Real Snail Mail as a vehicle to enrich a school’s curriculum. Educational workshops and lesson plans will be built around the RSM Educational kit to encourage creative interrogation of en-grained paradigms in an effort to promote innovative thinking regarding future technologies. The first pilot project is launching on the 19th February 2010 at the Gloria Fuertes Infant School located in Gijón, Asturias supported by Laboral Centro de Arte y Creatión Industrial, Gíjon, Spain.
The Gloria Fuertes Infant School community includes children with ages from 3 to 6 years old. Its aim is to contribute to the physical, intellectual, affective, social and moral development, always in close collaboration with their families, respecting diversity and encouraging creativity, and the use of new technologies.
Hi!
I´m a father of Colegio Gloria Fuertes and I think your idea is fantastic.
Lucía, my 6 years old daughter, explained me about snails “carrying e-mails” and was very interested in.
Luci and me have sent e-mails to friends and we hope some time they arrive.
Thank you and greetings for this nice and brilliant work
Bye
Eduardo (Luci´s father)
Dear Eduardo,
Thank you for getting in contact.
We really enjoyed working with the children at Colegio Gloria Fuertes and it is a pleasure to have an enclosure installed at the school.
I am glad you and your daughter have found the project rewarding and thank you for your comments.
Best,
Vicky
