GamucatexIs a new Danish startup organization with a platform that develops a new form of educational interactive software and media. We call our projects gamutexs, games education experiences. They are based on a principle method of high entertainment that are designed to teach users new skills through interaction. The startup company is at the moment a project that is being developed in the Human Legal Hub at KU, at South Campus (KUA). It is part of two programs in Communication and IT and Information Sciences, that allows us to work on a start up. The University of Copenhagen will help and support this by providing consultants, office space, workshops and much more. The university does not hold any ownership of the company and they do not decide what we do, they only advise and manage the hub office area. Team members doing academical research in the project usually keep the data that they collected, meaning they can use it in academical assignments and such.In our projects we want to get academical inputs to elevate the learning potential for the users, this is done by inviting students and professors from relevant fields to contribute with relevant theories and knowledge. In return we will transform this combined with gamification to develop methods and other ways that subjects can either be taught for students or they can be "trained" in them. In our learning-lab we are also going to experiment with new ideas for knowledge and create an open space to practice studies in an attempt to apply it to gamucatex.
