VAL-YOU op het evenement Best of Erasmus 2025
We zijn vereerd dat we door het Duitse Nationale Agentschap voor Schoolonderwijs zijn uitgenodigd om ons project VAL-YOU te presenteren tijdens het evenement Best of Erasmus 2025 in Potsdam op 2 oktober 2025.
Tijdens het evenement hadden we het genoegen een praktische workshop voor leerkrachten te verzorgen over Europese waarden in het onderwijs en de rol van Erasmus+ bij het bevorderen van deze waarden in heel Europa.

- Gameontwikkeling: een spel op zich
Het ontwikkelen van een game is veel meer dan alleen programmeren — het is een voortdurend evenwicht tussen creativiteit, realisme en speelbaarheid. Naast de technische aspecten van softwareontwikkeling biedt gameontwerp unieke kansen en complexe vraagstukken die bepalen hoe spelers leren en betrokken raken. Realisme versus speelbaarheid Onze scenario’s zijn geïnspireerd op democratische processen uit de… Lees verder »Gameontwikkeling: een spel op zich - VAL-YOU-project gepresenteerd tijdens de EU-werkgroep over burgerschapseducatie

🌍 World Refugee Day 🤝Today is World Refugee Day! 🕊️ A day to honor the courage, resilience, and dignity of millions of people who have been forced to flee their homes due to war, persecution, or natural disasters. 🗺️ It is also an opportunity to stand in solidarity with them and support their rights. 🎒❤️But what does it mean to stand in solidarity with others? And why is it important? 🤔Solidarity is the willingness to help others without expecting anything in return. 🤲 It is how we strengthen our communities through empathy and social responsibility. 🫂✨Val-YOU believes in promoting European values among young people and equipping students with the tools to become active, informed citizens in a democratic society. 🇪🇺🏫 They provide teachers and educators with resources to help guide their students through important concepts such as solidarity, justice, equality, and human rights. 📚⚖️🧠 Is solidarity something we are born with?Research suggests that humans have an innate capacity for empathy and cooperation from a very young age. 👶🌱 However, while the potential for solidarity is born within us, it must be actively nurtured, practiced, and expanded beyond our immediate circle to become a core value. 📈❤️🏫 How can solidarity be taught and practiced in class?Teachers can bring solidarity to life through practical, everyday classroom activities:Role-Playing & Storytelling: 📖 Reading stories of refugees or marginalized groups to help students walk in someone else's shoes.Peer-to-Peer Support: 🤝 Implementing "buddy systems" where students help classmates who are struggling with lessons or adjusting to a new school environment.Community Projects: 🎨 Organizing local food drives, charity fundraisers, or awareness campaigns for global causes.Open Debates: 🗣️ Creating a safe space to discuss global issues, human rights, and social justice, encouraging critical thinking and empathy.#WorldRefidugeeDay #Solidarity #ValYOU #HumanRights #EmpathyInAction #GlobalCitizens #EducationMatters #StandWithRefugees #EuropeanValues
🎮 The VAL-YOU project has entered the testing phase of Future Europe, our educational game designed to bring European democratic values closer to young people through an engaging and interactive experience.Students, teachers and educators are already exploring the game, facing challenges and making decisions that encourage reflection on democracy, participation, human rights and active citizenship. Their feedback will help us further improve the game and ensure it becomes an effective tool for schools and youth organisations across Europe.By learning through experience, Future Europe aims to make democratic values more accessible, meaningful and relevant for the citizens of tomorrow.🌍 Learning democracy by experiencing it.#Valyou #FutureEurope #democracyeducation #EuropeanValues #ErasmusPlus #activecitizenship #GameBasedLearning #YouthParticipation
