APCEIU has developed games as learning materials to
encourage learners to become active "Global Citizens" whose
thoughts, perspectives and actions emanate their identity
and responsibility as a member of the global community.
Gamification is a recognized education strategy, which aims to
improve learners' motivation and learning effectiveness by adding
game-based elements to traditional learning environments.
APCEIU actively facilitates the pedagogy to enable an accessible and
natural GCED learning through playing games.
In response to the great support for
APCEIU’s GCED contents
development,
APCEIU developed ‘Changers’,
a board game about
Global Citizenship Education.
‘Changers’ is a cooperation game
in which participants have to work together
to solve global issues and achieve goals,
allowing participants to contemplate global problems,
discuss solutions, and grow into active global citizens.
Thanks to the great support for the
APCEIU's GCED contents development,
we have developed the 'Global Citizen Campus',
an experiential education kit for GCED,
the Global Citizenship Education.
During the first session,
the players learn about
who ‘Global Citizens’ are and what virtues they possess.
(Team-based game)
During the second session, players share
and analyse what types of global citizens
they are by discussing
and learning about various global issues.
(Group discussion-based game)
During the third session, participants learn about
the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
and ask participants to consider
what kind of effort we need to make to build a better future.
(Individual play)
