The projects handbook and the instructional videos.

Curriculum

The training curriculum have focused on developing essential mental health competences for teenagers, such as: building a balanced personal identity, emotional management, maintaining meaningful relationships, living a healthy lifestyle.

Board game

The board game works around the same topics as the training curriculum. It is a dynamic game, with a lot of informational content. It is designed for multiple players. The instructions of the game are available in the five languages of the project.

Handbook

The handbook describes the activities of the training curriculum, the learning objectives behind each activity, methods for guiding the reflection and debriefing of learning and a few theoretical concepts that set the ground for the activities.

Training Videos

Videos have been made for many activities from the training curriculum, illustrating how the method has to be introduced, the development of the activity and the most important debriefing steps. The videos complement the written descriptions of activities.

Testimonials

I was involved in this project from day one. I took part in all of the trans-international meetings and the training in Romania. For me it was a great learning experience. I could feel both during the training and also during testings in schools that the curriculum is working. The non formal method of teaching works really well for the activities and fits perfectly for the age group that we were focusing on.

Kristinn Heiðar • About the project, Hugarafl

I’m amazed to find out that there are so many activities and tools for us to use to improve our health. Our own and our students health. Cause I’m a teacher. And my priority is to make them healthier as they are not very aware of being healthy. Physically first and of course in their soul and mind.
