In parallel with the development of the first T-GAMES project output Methodology for elaboration of educational games, also started the implementation of IO2 - Guide and testing scenarios on game methodology for educators. The main aim of the product is to put focus on the practical aspects of using games and activities for bullying prevention, mitigation control and proposing activities for helping all stakeholders involved in ongoing bullying. The Guide also offers key concepts and actions around bullying, role playing mechanisms, game facilitation and advice, competences and recommendations on bullying prevention.
The Guide has been prepared for parents, teachers and educators at primary school level in order to educate and inform them on innovative ways on addressing bullying – when it happens, how to prevent it and what methods to use for raising awareness on such matters among children and primary school pupils. With this said, presented will be guidelines on how game facilitation and role-playing mechanisms can be incorporated into fun but constructive conversations and interventions with children for their awareness on combating bullying. Parents will also obtain advice from primary school teachers, while the teachers from child psychologists, on tackling and preventing bullying, as well as role playing and gamification facilitation in education. The target group, both parents and teachers or educators, will therefore be facilitators for a better understanding of the problem of bullying at primary school level in children/pupils.
The Guide is divided into 5 sections. The first section is the introduction, the second is about the key concepts and actions around bullying, the third is on role playing mechanisms, while the fourth section is on game facilitation and the final fifth section includes advice, competences and recommendations. It is available in all partners languages – Bulgarian, Greek, Polish, Czech, Romanian and also in English.
