Abstract

The most valuable resource of the European Union (EU) is its youth. The EU’s future depends on young people’s ability to identify themselves as Europeans, that is, united by a shared European identity and a solid commitment to be active EU citizens. Young people want and need to know more about what it means to be an EU citizen. However, the younger generation needs better education as to what the EU is, what it represents and how their daily lives are positively influenced because of the EU. With the intention to bring EU topics closer to the daily lives of students, we developed an innovative, user-friendly educational game titled ‘Do we all speak the same language in Europe?’ to convey to the audience an essential message, that is, there are common roots that over centuries have shaped who we are. This chapter elaborates the rationale behind the educational game, outlines the rules of the game and discusses its value added by referencing the survey filled out by students who actually played the game. Conclusions and recommendations follow.
第十七章在欧洲我们都说同一种语言吗?从游戏中发现
欧盟最宝贵的资源是它的年轻人。欧盟的未来取决于年轻人将自己定位为欧洲人的能力,也就是说,由共同的欧洲身份和成为积极的欧盟公民的坚定承诺团结起来。年轻人想要也需要更多地了解成为欧盟公民意味着什么。然而,年轻一代需要更好的教育,了解欧盟是什么,它代表什么,以及欧盟如何对他们的日常生活产生积极影响。为了让欧盟话题更贴近学生的日常生活,我们开发了一款创新的、用户友好的教育游戏,名为“我们在欧洲都说同一种语言吗?”向观众传达一个重要的信息,那就是,几个世纪以来,我们有着共同的根源,这些根源塑造了我们。这一章详细阐述了教育游戏背后的基本原理,概述了游戏的规则,并通过参考实际玩游戏的学生填写的调查来讨论其附加价值。结论和建议如下。
