===Summary===
===Summary===
The walkshop consists in a first shared active exploration around streets and squares near the festival venue (looking for signs, hardware, graffitis, marks, images, sensors and anything sending or gathering data) and afterwards a session for geolocating online what has been found.
The walkshop consists in a shared active exploration around streets and squares near the festival venue (looking for signs, hardware, graffitis, marks, images, special spots in general) in order to work on a digital gymkhana as a learning activity for youth. Afterwards there could be a short session for geolocating online what has been found.


In a second walkshop there will be a kind of meta-activity or walkshop tutorial oriented to apply the method to other possible learning subjects (history, society, culture, architecture, art, etc) depending on participants interests.
What we want to do is a kind of meta-activity oriented to apply a method to different learning subjects (history, society, culture, architecture, art, etc) while the learners walk around a urban context. For this purpose we will establish a circuit with marks (QR codes) that once processed send questions and ask for reflexive inputs. These inputs (images, text, sounds, videos) would be sent by mobile devices and published on the go on a blog (and could de afterwards geolocated).
