At the request of the Liaison office of the European Parliament in The Netherlands, EuroClio and a team of authors have translated and adapted the Climate Change Education Kit for secondary vocational education: VMBO-T level (Netherlands) and  TSO level (Flanders). Dutch and Flemish schools will soon be able to discover the Dutch-language Educational kit: ‘Klimaatverandering’ and exchange documentaries produced between the two of them.

We are excited to announce the launching of the pilot phase of this newly translated Educational Kit starting in the Fall, for which we need 4 Dutch schools and 4 Flemish schools to take part!

Does this project sound of interest to your school, and do you wish to spark a discussion on climate change in the classroom?

Please send an email to eugenie@euroclio.eu. if your school would like to participate in the pilot stage of this project.

  • Students as Mediators of Conflicts
  • Find out what New Students Bring to the Classroom

    As a response to an increase in new students in the Swedish educational system, the Swedish Board of Education tasked a group of schools and universities to find a way to assess what newly arrived students know in order to provide the best possible education for each student, as well as focusing on their strengths rather than their weaknesses. This resulted in the formation of materials for conducting discourse around history for the purpose of assessing the historical competencies of newly arrived students. This is done in the form of a 70-minute conversation between a teacher and a student. The assessment is meant to provide valuable insight into what the students are already familiar with, so that teachers can take this into account when creating lesson plans.
