The other side of technology

"The other side of technology" is a project carried out during the 2019/2020 school year among various high schools in the Province of Trento and supported by the Cassa Rurale di Trento Foundation.

It is a program consisting of a series of meetings in participating schools in the Trento area, where the conscious use of new technologies is discussed.

In the final phase of the project, the interactive exhibition FAKE! was set up and open to the entire community, exploring the evolution of image reproduction technology, a topic that strongly pervades our daily lives. Students who have followed the educational pathway in schools will have acquired critical tools that will allow them to interpret the exhibition on multiple levels.
