Игротехническое погружение

Saint Petersburg, Russia Teaching

Reviews: 0 Joined: 0 ... ...

Обучение состоится в середине февраля 2020 г. в Санкт-Петербурге, оно будет проходить 2-3 дня. На нем мы разберем теорию игротехники: принципы образовательной игротехники, классификации игр, игровые инструменты, подбор формы игры под задачу и т.д. И затем будем практиковаться и создавать группой пул социально-экологических игр для севера Европейской части России по результатам работы экспедиций в регионе.

В числе игр будут и настольные игры, и игры живого действия, и коммуникативные - на любой вкус, в зависимости от темы и задачи каждой конкретной игры.

По итогам проекта по каждой успешной игре мы соберем "коробки" - доведем игру до полноценной формы, в которой ее можно использовать дальше без нас (то есть любой может взять игру и сыграть/провести ее по инструкции).

В качестве просветительских материалов можно использовать брошюры и буклеты, учебные пособия и инфографику, мультфильмы и образовательные игры.

Программа для вас будет состоять из трёх частей:
1) введение в результаты экспедиций, проходивших на севере европейской части России в течение 2019 г.
2) обучение созданию игр на экологическую и социальную тематику - “введение в игротехнику”;
3) выезд в один из населенных пунктов Архангельской/Вологодской/Мурманской области с целью проведения игровой программы для местных жителей (учеников школы и/или взрослых).


Сроки: ориентировочные даты обучения - 14-16 февраля, выезд в населенный пункт - в течение 2020 г. (по согласованию с местными жителями)

Type of work

Наша задача - в веселой и ёмкой игровой форме поднять экологические проблемы, возникающие как следствие изменений климата, характерные для конкретного региона, и возможные пути их решения.

Conditions

Обучающий семинар и последующая поездка в населенный пункт покрывается организаторами. Дорогу до СПб на обучение не оплачиваем.

1. The mission of the program

He participated in Vietnam war in the past (1969-1975), of course, on the side of the American army. After the war, like other American soldiers, he came back to the USA. When he retired, he decided to come back to Vietnam with the will to do something good for Vietnam in the hope of making it up to the past, and the charity English program was founded. That was the first mission of the program. He ran the program for a few years and now he is expanding it in another areas of Vietnam. We are in Hanoi to continue his will.

Live in Colombia and teach English

Zipaquirá, Colombia Teaching

Reviews: 0 Joined: 21 Alejandro Clavijo

More than English Colombia aims to bring foreign teachers to rural schools in Colombia to teach English. Since all the schools we work with are in rural areas, it is more of a volunteering position because these schools don't really have many resources. The schools provide accommodation, breakfast and lunch during the weekdays and they pay monthly salary of approx 700 000 Colombian pesos (about 214 EUR) which is a standard Colombian salary. It isn't much by any western standards, however, you can live very comfortably with this amount here.

Type of work

In Colombia normally classes start very early, from 6:30am to 3:00pm. During this time there are two breaks of 45 minutes each. Classes are from Monday to Friday.

Conditions

We guarantee that schools will offer a fair-trade so they will give housing, breakfast and lunch from Monday to Friday, transport from the acommodation place to the school (in case is needed) and a wage. The wage is around $700000 (220euro approx). The salary isn't much by any western standards, however, you can live very comfortably with this amount here. Before volunteers have managed to travel with this amount around the country.
