The team wished to render students more
informed and participant in their role as European
Citizens.
European Citizenship issues are not included at all
or only superficially in secondary curricula in the
most EU countries.
_____________________________________________
We proposed to use immersive environments in
support of students’ motivation and providing
personal context for these issues, inside and
outside of classrooms.
