Creative education and learning

Winter student camp in Ohrid
 

Seventy-six students of various nationalities took part at the Winter Student Camp in Ohrid from 15 to 18 January 2006. The winter camp is part of the project called “Creative education and learning” organized by the Open Society Institute – Macedonia Foundation, in cooperation with the Youth Educational Forum and designed for the high-school students who have been part of the programme “Debate” and “We learn law” during the school year. The students participated in interactive workshops on teamwork, general discussions, simulations and games. They learnt many things, such as: the procedure of passing a law, the creation of proposals for laws, the course of the legal (criminal) procedure through a simulated court trial, the elements of a debate, the preparation of the arguments for a debate, etc.
