GameOn: Non-formal learning values and principles on a trial

Teave

Let’s get real about non-formal learning values and principles.
﻿
We have developed Value Cards that are part of the educational game “The 4 Headed Monkey”. The set of cards will help you to explore your fundamental values and principles. When using the cards, we invite you to focus on your educational practices.

How to complete this activity?
﻿
Individual version:
Step 1. Familiarise yourself with the set of Value Cards. You can download them from the resources section and print them. 
Step 2. Choose the 10 most important Value Cards that guide your educational practices.
Step 3. Take each card separately and openly ask yourself: In which educational situations you may compromise this specific value and let it go? Remove every value card that you can find good reasons to let it go of.
Step 4. Look at the remaining Value Cards and think, about why these values are fundamentally important for your educational practice. How does your set of values correspond to non-formal learning values and principles?
﻿
Team version: 
Take step 1 and step 2 as in the individual version and then continue to the next steps:
Step 3. In each round, every team member takes one value card that they may compromise and takes away without explaining the reasons. Continue this step until there is no one willing to let it go more values. At any time you may say stop and keep the remaining value cards.
Step 4. Share your reasons for taking away value cards. Share why you kept specific values and how your set of values corresponds to non-formal learning values and principles?
