Crisis Point won the European Information Association’s prestigious “Award for Excellence in EU information provision” for 2010 at an award ceremony which took place at the British Library on 22 March 2010.
Crisis Point is a fantastic new (and free!) resource to help teach citizenship in schools for years 7 – 12. It works as a collapsed timetable event taking a day to play for a whole year group or slightly less if you want to break it into smaller groups. Just follow the links to download the pack.
This great new resource is provided by The UK Office of the European Parliament and aims to help students and teachers get a better understanding of some of the basics of just what the European Parliament is and does, as well as letting students put themselves into the shoes of MEPs for the day.
Here’s a few snapshots of some of the parts to the day:
Am so pleased the Simulator looks so cool! Really pleased by it. Think it adds to the drama of the whole Crisis Point game. Well done Dave and Craig for sorting this!
