Social Entrepreneurship (before education): 4 Geniko Lykeio Larisas : participation on European Money Quiz (EMQ) of the European Banking Federation (EBF)

1st place in Europe for Greece and the 4th General Lyceum of Larissa in the European Money Quiz (EMQ) of the European Banking Federation (EBF)




 The students Anestis Tomi and Pantelis Chemelidis of the 1st grade of our high school, having first won the 1st place in the National Money knowledge competition of the Hellenic Banking Association (EET) last March, succeeded and won the 1st place in the European Competition knowledge of EMQ money among the champions of 27 other countries and a total number of participants that exceeded 37,500.

The European EMQ competition, which aims to improve the financial literacy of students aged 13-15, was held in Brussels on May 16 after the students together with their accompanying teachers mr. Gerovasilis Angeliki and Domanoglou Kyriaki, who encouraged and prepared them for the competition, and the representatives of EET, Dr. Ziakou Sofia and Mr. Perifanos Angelos, first followed an intense program of activities with a visit to the European Parliament, the Parlamentarium, the Wikifin Lab, the opening ceremony of the European Stock Exchange and the Museum of European History.

The 1st place is of particular importance if we consider that it is the first time that Greek champions are students of a public school and at the same time the first time that Greece wins in the European Competition.

The 1st place prize in the National competition was a computer for the school. The costs of the trip to Brussels were fully covered by the Hellenic Bankers' Association, which organized the competition and supported the Greek team throughout its preparation. The prize for winning 1st place in the European EMQ Competition is 3,000 euros allocated for the needs of the school.

MEETING: AID 2nd Partners meeting in Slovakia


Presenting the existed work of the toolkit to partners 


Description

The Educational Toolkit aims to train and empower teachers & principals/directors of schools on teaching practices of entrepreneurship and especially social and green entrepreneurship and social economy to students.

Teachers will become familiar with the concept of social economy and learn tools and methodologies in order to adopt and introduce them into their teaching. The training manual will include modules and detailed chapters on social entrepreneurship. The training material will also provide information and insights on how to integrate e-learning and other digital tools into training courses to support engagement, online team collaboration and document sharing, providing useful tips on how to use multiple platforms such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or online educational games such as Kahoot and more digital tools such as Dotstorming, Padlet, Wakelet, Bubbl.us, Mind Mapping Tools, as well as group communication applications such as Slack, Trello, Popplet.


The abilities of the teachers that will be strengthened through the study of the manual are:

- Knowledge of Social & Green businesses, Social entrepreneurship, basic skills

- Teaching methods and professional competence

- Management, Marketing, Leadership, Problem Solving - Increasing social and environmental awareness

- Business planning and programming

 

Indicative manual sections

 

We recommend that the modules contain 6 Units.

Each Unit should have this structure:

1. Purpose for the unit and a brief description of the main objectives

2. The expected learning outcomes

3. The material for the unit

4. Digital teaching tools and applications

5. Video – Supervisory material

6. Evaluation tools (questionnaire, open questions, quizzes, etc.)

 

Chapter – Unit presentations

Unit 1. Introduction Social entrepreneurship, Social Economy and related concepts (unit 1)

 

Unit 2. Social Entrepreneurship & Social/Green Businesses (success stories). 

Here we will provide indicative material that needs to be enriched. Maybe here even a a detailed example how APTET works will be nice since you are social company right? Not an NGO.

 

Unit 3. Business Plans and Marketing for Social Enterprises

• Presentation and utilization of social business plan & canvas,

• Presentation of ideas to potential investors (pitching speeches etc.)

 

Unit 4. Social Enterprise Tools (financial, etc.)

• digital teaching tools and applications (indicative activities with instructions for teachers and links, videos, applications to use)

• References


Other instructions

• The manual will be written by us in the Greek language and the school will translate it, if I remember correct. It will depend on the budget approaval.

• Its length should be at least 60 pages.

• Modules cannot be less than 6
