PT - Portugal Game-based Research in Education and Action Training  (GREAT)

The use of games as educational tools is seen as a trend pointing to the future of learning. Using games for learning is effective because they create rich contexts where educational objectives can be defined and theoretical concepts can be applied in practical situations. Educational games promote the development of personal and social skills as they favor cultural awareness, socialization, respect for others, teamwork, leadership, decision making and collaborative learning. The GREAT project is building on this trend by developing a methodology and a way to use game-based learning in the teaching-learning process through the transfer of innovative methodologies. Game-Based Learning includes all forms of formal or informal learning which are supported by digital simulations, games, modelling, virtual and augmented reality, new interaction devices, toys and playthings. Main target groups of the project were trainers and teachers from training companies or organizations (focusing on SMEs and on social economy) and VET organizations. 

 The main outcomes of the GREAT project are an online catalogue of games and a training package containing a handbook to help trainers and teachers integrate game-based learning in the teaching-learning process and a training-of-trainers course curriculum, all available online for free.

Já lá dizia o Sócrates: - só sei que nada sei! - mas, se dele não há legado escrito que chegasse aos nossos dias, então como?

  Sócrates Estátua de Sócrates na   Academia de Atenas Na wikipedia pode ler-se:  « Alguns autores defendem que ele não deixou nada escrito pois, além de na sua época a transmissão do saber ser feita, essencialmente, pela via oral, Sócrates assumia-se como alguém que sabe que nada sabe. Assim, para ele, a escrita fecharia o conhecimento, deixando-o de forma acabada, amarrando o seu autor ao estrito contexto de afirmações inamovíveis: se essas afirmações contemplam o erro, a escrita não só o perpetua como garante a sua transmissão. [ » Ou ainda:  « A popular frase   só sei que nada sei   ou   sei uma coisa: que eu nada sei , por vezes compreendida como um   paradoxo socrático , é um dizer muito conhecido, derivado da narrativa de   Platão   sobre o   filósofo   Sócrates . No entanto, a frase não é mencionada em nenhum texto   grego antigo   que nos tenha sido legado» Vem isto a propósito do romance (logo uma história c...

75 anos da NATO - a Stanav e o seu papel após 56 anos de missões permanentes no Atlântico Norte

  Artigo publicado nos Anais do CMN, VOL CXXIV, jan-mar, 1994, p.19-46. Ali, referenciei que a STANAV (Standing Naval Force of Atlantic North) fizera 25 anos em 13 de janeiro de 1993 e qual a missão que lhe fora atribuída. Quer portanto dizer que passaram 50 anos sobre a sua criação e a sua integração pela Marinha Portuguesa nesta força da NATO.   Nos 75 anos da NATO, agora comemorados com uma cimeira em washington e do qual saiu:  NATO - Official text: Washington Summit Declaration issued by the Heads of State and Government participating in the meeting of the North Atlantic Council in Washington, D.C. 10 July 2024, 10-Jul.-2024 38 parágrafos de assumpções e Uma Pledge of Long-Term Security Assistance for Ukraine . Talvez o parag. mais importante venha a ser: " We welcome that more than two-thirds of Allies have fulfilled their commitment of at least 2% of GDP annual defence spending and commend those Allies who have exceeded it.  Allies are stepping up: defenc...
