Goal of the activity

The goal of the acitivity was bringing together Erasmus students and ESNers, not only from our Section but from all over Europe, in order to play Chess and provide entertainment.

Learning Objective for the participants

The activity was meant to improve the chess skills of the players and keep the mind sharp.

Result of the activity

The result of the activity was pretty succesful. We were able to gather Erasmus students and ESNers from outside our Section and a tournament was played. Using the website Chess.com, which is free to use, the players were asked to arrange a game with their opponents and then communicate the result of the match to the organizers. Eventually, a Turkish Erasmus student won the final match. The feedback were solid: everyone agreed that the platform used was user-friendly and it did not take much time to get familiar with the basic features of the website.
