Long-term LTTA "Training Assignments on Active Citizenship" - PART 2

Καινοτομία Κέντρο Δια Βίου Μάθησης participated in the long-term LTTA of the FACIT project in Porto, Portugal by preparing and organizing a workshop on the concept of “economic citizenship”. The workshop took place in the Águas Santas Secondary School, where high school students had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the economic aspect of active citizenship, a concept that the FACIT project promotes.

During the workshop, the economic citizenship and its aspects were presented to the students, followed by an introductory discussion about it. Then, the students engaged more actively in the workshop through their participation in its activities which were based on the team-oriented cooperative learning method.

These activities required the students to collaborate in order to follow a “journey” of acquiring citizenship by investment in touristic properties in Portugal through a series of team choices such as the name and the origin of their team, the region of Portugal where their enterprise will be located and the type of enterprise that they will establish. The students also collaborated in presenting their enterprise, analyzing their prospects and challenges, performing a SWOT analysis, and, finally, participating in a scenario that was utilized to demonstrate to them the value of being responsible as an economic citizen.

A big thank goes to the students for their active participation and the interest showed during the workshop and let's hope that they will become responsible, reputable, and active as future citizens.
