The Inventors Projects

BOARD GAME

We believe in projects that bring together science, art, and creativity, inspiring children to learn in a practical and engaging way

Discover, as a family, how this experience inspires curious minds and sparks children’s interest in science. Together, we can:

  • Revisit the concepts covered in class!

  • Explore the legacy of John von Neumann and understand the practical applications related to the project!

  • Stimulate curiosity and encourage critical thinking in young inventors!

Let’s turn learning into a memorable and fun experience!

The Strategy of the Future

The Board Game Project enables young inventors to understand the relevance of the skills gained from a simple game when applied to society

This experience invites young inventors to create a Board Game, based on several concepts!

The experience sparks children’s curiosity and creativity about the world of games and strategy. It allows them to learn, in a practical and enjoyable way, concepts developed by many pioneers of strategy, encouraging them to explore the world around them with an inventive mindset.

This reflects the mission to inspire future inventors to think ‘outside the box’ and to apply their knowledge in creative and innovative ways

About InspiringInventors

John von Neumann

John von Neumann

1903-1957

Was a hungarian and american mathematician, physicist, computer scientist and engineer. Von Neumann had perhaps the widest coverage of any mathematician of his time, integrating pure and applied sciences and making major contributions to many fields, including mathematics, physics, economics, computing, and statistics. He was a pioneer in building the mathematical framework of quantum physics, in the development of functional analysis, and in game theory, introducing or codifying concepts including cellular automata, the universal constructor and the digital computer. His analysis of the structure of self-replication preceded the discovery of the structure of DNA.

ConceptsCovered

Strategy

  • Strategy: A word of Greek origin meaning plan, method, maneuvers used to achieve an
    objective. In ancient times, this word was closely related to wars and how warriors planned
    them. Today, it is more associated with the business world

Healty Competition

  • Healty Competition: Is a form of competition based on respect, ethics and personal development, in which the main objective is not only to win, but also to learn, grow and value both one’s own performance and that of others.

Why this project?

The Board Game project was created with three main objectives:

Understanding the importance of concepts: In this project, young inventors gain an awareness of the usefulness of concepts such as strategy, healty competition, concentration or imagination

Understanding the impact on society: With the Board Game project, young inventors learn how these concepts are used in real situations, helping to foster a spirit of competition based on respect and adherence to the rules.!

Focusing on creativity and inventiveness: By taking part in this process, young inventors develop skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking and team work. In the end, playing with the Board Game makes the experience even more special.

At the end of the session, young inventors gain a new appreciation for the world of strategy.

Together, we discover how to play by the rules!

Challenges for you

Ask your young inventor what excited them most in the lessons — or try out the Board Game as a family!

For the more adventurous, how about sharing the impact of those decisions with us on social media?
