Search for schools!!
As a part of the EU-funded project aVataR@school teams from the UK, Italy, Germany, Spain and Romania have been developing an internet-based virtual three-dimensional environment for pupils in schools throughout Europe where they can cooperatively practice to deal with school bullying and victimisation. Using tools developed from this project, it is possible for pupils to interact and exchange ideas through virtual role-plays with other pupils in other parts of Europe. In the time between October and December 2008 we will hold 20 role plays for which we search up to 40 schools from across Europe that are interested in participating in our virtual role plays. The role plays will be moderated by the experts from the aVataR@school project. The roles of the bullies, victims, bystanders, teachers and mediators will be played by pupils of the participating schools. Apart from detailed instructions on how to access and use the virtual environment created in the aVataR@school project each school will be provided with role play scenarios and role instructions for each of the pupils participating in the role play. Participation at our virtual role play sessions is limited to a group of up to 40 schools from throughout Europe on a first-come, first-serve basis. The expected time involvement for participating schools will be around 6-8 hours (2-3 hours for the virtual role play itself and around 4-5 hours of preparation and organisation). For more information about the aVataR@school project take a look at the project's leaflet  , or please visit our website: http://www.avataratschool.eu If your school is interested in participating in one of our virtual role plays please contact:
Schools joining the project will be given a certificate of partecipation! |
