Abstract

The #WhiteMirrorProject is a project to think about sustainable and technological development. Students begin by analyzing several subjects related to the environment and technology. Based on this analysis, they make a prediction of how these elements will affect society in the future. As a final product of this process, students record a video that reflects the future scenario they have imagined, following the format of the TV series. The project has been carried out within the framework of the subject “Ciències pel món contemporani”, with 17-year-old students
