Summary:

ODISSEU is a cross-field strategic partnership in the school education field creating an online simulation game responding to 4 key EU-wide needs:

This will address 4 related school needs linked to key EU policy objectives:

Need1: Ensuring inclusive education for young people which combats racism and discrimination on any ground;

Need2: Empowering teachers to educate children and young people in media literacy and to impart common fundamental values and to prevent and combat racism, intolerance and hate speech online;

Need3: Promoting intercultural dialogue through all forms of learning in cooperation with other relevant stakeholders;

Need4: Increase understanding and raise awareness of refugee issues amongst pupils.

 

ODISSEU is a well-balanced partnership, composed of different types of institutions, with different skills, regionally and culturally diversified. All partners are largely experienced in participating and coordinating European and national projects associated to school education, innovation, ICT and asylum seeker issues.

Partners know ODISSEU can meet these 4 needs because:

-          ODISSEU will have a structural link into the curriculum to embed learning more effectively into formal education: no other models do this;

-          will structurally include student active citizenship actions into the online game;

-          will be informed by real life stories developed by asylum seekers, with specific focus on training them as agent of change and educators;

-          will be developed with the support and evidenced based feedback of Peer Groups, schools themselves and asylum seekers as the end users of the model.

 

 

Objectives:

The overall objective is to produce a holistic and inclusive Online Simulation Game to explain forced migration which allows broad participation across the whole school, including integration into the curriculum, provision for skills development and shifts in pedagogy and mindset by participating teachers, and a genuinely involvement of asylum seekers as active change agent throughout the project.

This will make it both innovative (entirely new in EU) and complimentary to existing work. It therefore has 4 objectives:

  • OBJ1: Develop, adapt and transfer an innovative online simulation game to increase understanding and raise awareness of refugee issues amongst secondary school students;
  • OBJ2: Develop online education resources to support secondary school teachers to engage young people in informed discussion about Migration and Asylum in the EU;
  • OBJ3: Promote a positive interaction and active participation of asylum seekers and refuges by engaging them to participate in local community’s life telling their stories;
  • OBJ4: Enhancing young people critical thinking and media literacy.
