About the project
ASAP - A Systemic APproach to social media and pre-adolescents through thinking skills education aims to strengthen educational communities through the introduction of stable metacognitive practices in schools. To do this, the project will promote a reflection on the cognitive processes implied in the use of the media, by pre-adolescents (age 11-13), from a psycho-pedagogical point of view and from a transdisciplinary perspective.
The project will run between September 2022 and August 2025 and is coordinated by Fondazione Politecnico Milano (Italy). The project also counts with Pepita Onlus (Italy), Associazione LeNius (Italy), DOBA Business School (Slovenia), ProEduca z.s. (Czech Republic), Association for Communication and Media Culture - DKMK (Croatia) and Instituto Comprensivo Statale Via Bologna Bresso (Italy) as partners.
