Centre de Ressources pour les Enseignants

Play is an easy, natural and universal practice that builds resilience. Play comes naturally to all children- and is a seemingly simple and light-hearted phenomenon. The power of play as a pathway to building resilience needs to be leveraged to provide children with the opportunity to further explore play in their home and school environments.

This toolkit is therefore premised on the objectives to build the capacity of various stakeholders such as caregivers/teachers, school managers, curriculum planners and policy makers who are key actors in the process of growth and development of children. It is also aimed at equipping these stakeholders with the knowledge and pedagogical skills to translate research, policy and curriculum to practical knowledge and activities for children in the school environment. The toolkit offers directions for facilitators who will be working with caregivers/teachers using the materials and resources provided and other relevant materials available in an environment where it will be used.

The purpose of this teacher guide is to inspire teachers who want to work with climate change and sustainable development with their students. In this guide, you will find examples of teaching activities and teacher reflections on these activities. The activities described should be seen as inspiration. They could be adjusted according to a specific teaching context as preferred, thus aligned with the same objectives and perceived outcomes. The EU-project in which the activities were developed, was carried out with upper secondary students (aged 16-19). With smaller changes by the teachers, younger students can also work with the suggested activities. Beyond the goal of learning about climate change and sustainable development, the activities enable students to practice their critical thinking, and develop their communication and presentation skills. 

Ce guide est conçu pour renforcer les capacités des enseignants du secondaire et des formateurs d’enseignants à intégrer une approche de renforcement de la paix et de la résilience dans l’éducation pour la prévention de l’extrémisme violent. Il s'appuye sur le guide «Pédagogie transformationnelle pour la construction de la paix» et il a été élaboré dans le contexte du Sahel et des pays voisins.

Le guide redéfinit le rôle des enseignants en les invitant à opérer un changement de paradigme consistant à adopter une pédagogie transformationnelle permettant aux apprenants de participer activement à leur propre apprentissage. La pédagogie transformationnelle que propose le guide se refère à la pédagogie active et à l’approche par les compétences (APC). Pour ce faire, le guide propose des activités visant un apprentissage par la pratique.

Benefiting from the expertise of delegates from more than 30 member countries, the IHRA Recommendations for Teaching and Learning about the Holocaust are intended to provide a basis for policymakers, practitioners, and educators that will help them:
1. Develop knowledge of the Holocaust, ensuring accuracy in individual understanding and knowledge and raising awareness about the possible consequences of antisemitism;
2. Create engaging teaching environments for learning about the Holocaust;
3. Promote critical and reflective thinking about the Holocaust including the ability to counter Holocaust denial and distortion;
4. Contribute to Human Rights and genocide prevention education
