End of first project year

Many thanks to all partners and collaborators for a successful first project year.
The Erasmus+ project "Cross-curricular collaboration to improve students' financial skills using games" – FINGO, 2021-1-RO01-KA220-SCH-000032584, 2021-2023 implemented together with partners from Lithuania, Spain, Italy, Romania, Cyprus and Turkey, has completed the activities planned for the first year.
The Kick Off Meeting at Special Technological High School "Vasile Pavelcu, Iasi, Romania and the managemnt meeting TPM at Konya Il Milli Eğitim Müdürlüğü Iletişim, Turkey as well as other online organizational meetings were held in this period. The teaching-learning-training activity C1 has took place at the organization "Citizens in Power" Nicosia, Cyprus where the seven modules within the final product "Financial literacy skills using games" were piloted, the content of the elaborated curriculum being thus tested internationally in practical activity. Subsequently, each partner organized the local piloting with interested specialists. Following the piloting of the project products, with a significant playful and visual character, PR1 "Financial education skills using games - training curriculum for students with special needs" and PR2 "Financial education skills using games for students with special needs - training materials" have been improved and can be consulted in final form on the project website but also on partners’ websites.
Currently, the partners develop the PR3 product, a manual with best practices and stories about successful personal financial management for students with special needs. Stories of successful practices will be collected from the media, from social networks among personalities, people with hearing or other disabilities. Each partner will develop three such stories involving typical and mostly special needs persons and present them in a visually attractive and creative manner, also having an important motivational role for the readers. These may also include short videos or podcasts.
