Simulated Learning, Identity & Intercultural Dialogue
Simulated Learning, Identity & Intercultural Dialogue
Inhoud
This activity introduces economic games and creative cultural archiving, using structured reflection to help young people explore global viewpoints and celebrate their local heritage.
1. How the learning happens: Gamified Economic Literacy
Complex global concepts are made accessible through hands-on simulations. Teams enter shared virtual market environments, such as the stock market simulator StockRise, to experience economic mechanics first-hand.
The Debriefing Strategy: Playing the game is only the starting point. Afterward, the youth worker leads an informal group discussion. The shared game experience serves as a concrete anchor to chat about real-world financial literacy, differences in local costs of living, and spending habits across their different countries.
2. Digital Storytelling: Building Cultural Museums
Young people transform their designated national rooms inside the game into interactive cultural spaces. Youth workers guide them through the technical workflow of uploading and coding authentic media:
Importing Real Culture: Learners practice uploading their own digital media—such as photographs of their hometowns, local music recordings, or traditional artistic textures—directly into their 3D rooms.
Adding Interactive Features: Youth learn basic coding elements, like setting up ProximityPrompts. This means when an international visitor's avatar walks up to a custom object, a text box automatically pops up showing a local history fact, a community story, or a common phrase in their native language.
3. Structured Reflection: The Three-Tiered Debriefing Grid
To ensure that cross-border room visits lead to deep learning rather than superficial sightseeing, youth workers guide participants through a clear, three-step reflection model:
