BIG STEP: Learning through Gamification – Integration of the Vulnerable Groups
Purpose
- Language learning
- Social inclusion
The project “BIG STEP” will develop a novel educational 2-D serious video game which will help refugees engage in learning their host country’s language by playing and interacting digitally, while combining local cultural aspects (e.g. what time do they have lunch in Belgium? etc). The game will be tailored to the respective needs and educational level(s) of the target groups, who will be reached through the official structures in place by the member states, and will enhance their media and literacy skills to a great extent, competences that are going to be very useful when looking for a job eventually. The game will be free of charge and will stay online after the project ends.
