Villard-de-Lans: A Case Study for Participatory People-Centered Smart City Learning Design

Abstract

This article presents the results of a design workshop that developed scenarios of learning in an imaginary "smart city": Villard-de-Lans (Vercors, French Alps) by exploring suitable methodological approaches to the Smart City Learning Design. The aim of this case study was to propose "glocal" solutions intended to balance the global trends and the expectations of the community of reference (local elements), while distinguishing between access to information and participation in informal learning processes located in a smart city.
